GLO offers youth ages 11-18 the chance to become ambassadors within our program. Through this role, students gain valuable training and career development opportunities, while making a significant impact in their community.

In addition to attending community events, GLO will also host its own. We will first establish a strong relationship with the community and then target our events to specific neighborhoods and prepare flyers and social media to encourage participation. We strive to host events that are fun and accessible to everyone by providing entertainment, translation, and childcare. We use these events to inform, excite, and listen to the community.
GLO participates in local community events that align with the project’s location. Our involvement is guided by a detailed stakeholder analysis and an understanding of local demographics. If a community event targets a key group, GLO is committed to engaging and providing outreach opportunities there.
A huge part of GLO’s initiatives is to form a deep rooted and meaningful relationship with the local community. We do this by creating a team of youth that live in the project area, therefore promoting affinity groups, but also by allowing these youth to talk to the people they already know such as their teachers, friends, and families.
