In-Person Program
The Young Ambassadors program was developed because the Henrik Lundqvist Foundation believes in the incredible power of young people to make a difference in the world, and we want to give you a platform to do just that.
About the Program
Our flagship in-person program empowers young men and women ages 13-18 across New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut who want to be changemakers in their communities and beyond. Financial assistance is available for any participant who needs support.
