Do you love being a Coug? Do you want to inspire positive change for the Cougar community? We love your enthusiasm and welcome you to sign up to be an ambassador for #CougsGive, WSU’s annual day of philanthropy! What does it mean to be a Cougar Ambassador? Learn more below!

As a Cougar Ambassador you’ll:

Make a Difference! Use your passion and voice to ask your friends, family members, and fellow Cougs to make a gift in support of WSU. Each ambassador will receive a custom referral link to share with their communities, and each time someone makes a gift with that link, you’ll be credited with inspiring their donation!

Support Cougs! Lead by example and make a gift to the areas of your choice during #CougsGive. Share about why these areas matter to you and inspire others to follow your lead.

Share your Coug Pride! Through social media, email, or text, share why you love being a Coug and why #CougsGive is important to you. Check out our Ambassador Toolkit for downloadable content and prompts to get you started!

Frequently Asked Questions:

#1: What is a Cougar Ambassador?

A Cougar ambassador volunteers on #CougsGive to ask their connections to make a gift during #CougsGive.

#2: I’ve been a Cougar Ambassador before, do I need to sign up again?

Yes, you will need to sign up again, even if you’ve been an ambassador before. Please use the sign-up function to the right.

#3: I’ve signed up. What do I do now?

Thanks for signing up! Your next step is to log in to your ambassador dashboard and update your WSU affiliation. Then, ask two people to join you as a #CougsGive ambassador!

#4: What if I don’t have a HUGE social media following?

The good news is that you don’t need one! The most effective Cougar Ambassadors are passionate people who reach out directly to their connections and ask them to make a gift and/or sign up to be a Cougar Ambassador themselves.

#5: What if I have a question not answered here?

No worries! We’re always happy to help at annual.giving@wsu.edu.  

Go Cougs!
