2025-2026 Hamilton County Harvest Food Bank Ambassador Program

Overview: The Hamilton County Harvest Ambassador Program (HCHAP) is an opportunity for Hamilton County high school students to be chosen as representatives of the Hamilton County Harvest Food Bank at their respective schools. Currently Noblesville High School, Carmel High School, and Fishers High School participate in the Ambassador program. We are expanding to additional schools in the county.

Responsibilities: Ambassadors organize 1 school food drive or fundraising activity, coordinate 1-3 school volunteer opportunities with the food bank, communicate with school clubs and teams about upcoming food bank events, and create social media posts to promote volunteer opportunities and food bank events.

Time Commitment: We ask that Ambassadors participate actively between the months of August – May. There is one meeting or activity (in-person or virtual) each month and the total commitment is 4/hours per month. HCHFB Ambassador Program 2025-2026 Key Dates
