StudentAmbassadors/Activities
IMPORTANT NOTICE : The FSA program is now set to transition to Campus Clubs
A new program is coming to campuses this September that is aligned with the existing Mozilla Clubs structure and will provide a unified model for participation on campuses around the world.
Mozilla Campus Clubs will be replacing the FSA program and so we won’t be accepting any new Firefox Student Ambassadors. The listed FSA Activities won’t be carried any more. You can find more information about the future of the program in this post, where you can also leave your questions.
Learn more about the Campus Clubs at: campus.mozilla.community

Feel free to remix, add ideas, and come up with an event that better suits your school!

- Promote on social media and put up posters around campus
- At event, give a short introduction to Mozilla, Firefox, Firefox OS, and our mission to promote an open Web.
- Talk about open source, why choose the Firefox the browser (encouraging downloads), share news about Firefox OS, and other important resources such as Webmaker
- Then, go over what the FSA Program is. Including activities, recognition opportunities, program structure, who we are, what you plan to do as a club, etc
- Do a fun activity!
- Q&A round
