What is a SKIP Ambassador?

The Senior’s and Kid’s Intergenerational Programs’ Ambassadors are students and seniors who gather exciting highlights about their class visits.

Ambassadors are a select group of seniors and students with a diverse range of backgrounds and experiences who can provide detailed and candid moment and information about SKIP.

Ambassadors work with SKIP Head Office by sharing photographs, and blogging about their visits. SKIP Head Office will speak to you regarding upcoming SKIP events.
