Andrew Goodman Ambassador Program Applications Open

Students can now apply to become an Andrew Goodman Vote Everywhere Ambassador.

This program is part of a national initiative led by the Andrew Goodman Foundation, an organization founded to honor civil rights activist Andrew Goodman. The foundation advocates for voting rights and civic education.

Annually, two students are selected from each participating campus—Kendall, Wolfson and North Campus.

“We look for students who are passionate about [civic engagement],” said Kendall Campus Institute of Civic Engagement and Democracy Director Priya Pershadsingh. “We want someone who will support the mission we stand for.”

With their respective iCED director, ambassadors will help educate Miami Dade College’s community on voting rights, promote civil conversation and assist in registering voters. 

The role requires each student to complete at least 10 hours per week during the fellowship, which lasts from August through May 2026. They will be paid $500 per semester. 

“I have learned what it takes to engage [with] people, especially within fields that wouldn’t be interested in [civics] otherwise,” said Isabella Lopez, a student ambassador at Kendall Campus.
