Save the Children's Ambassadors

Our ambassadors generously give their time and energy to support vulnerable children around the globe and in Australia.
 

Amazing ambassadors supporting children around the world

Our ambassadors generously give up their time to support vulnerable children in Australia and overseas. We're lucky to have many passionate Australians who raise awareness in the wider community about important issues that impact children. We also work with our colleagues in other countries to support the work of our international ambassadors when they visit Australia.
