2025 Giving Tuesday
🌟 500 KIDS AMBASSADOR PACKET
1️⃣ WELCOME TO THE TEAM
Dear Ambassador,
Thank you for stepping forward to join our 500 Kids Ambassador Team for Giving Tuesday!
Your willingness to share this mission with your circle makes you one of the most important parts of this year’s School Supplies Campaign.
Because of you, children in Guatemala will receive:
✔ A sturdy backpack
✔ A full year of school supplies
✔ A children’s Bible
✔ A Gospel tract
✔ The dignity and confidence to walk into school prepared
You aren’t just fundraising — you are opening the door to a brighter, safer future for a child.
We are honored to partner with you.
2️⃣ WHAT DOES AN AMBASSADOR DO?
Ambassadors help God Said Go Missions reach more families by:
1. Creating a personal fundraising page
We provide the link. You customize it with your photo & message. Here’s the link: https://givebutter.com/500kids/join
2. Sharing that page with your friends, family, coworkers & church community
3. Setting a simple, powerful goal:
Equip 10 children for school = $350
4. Posting on social media on and before Giving Tuesday
5. Celebrating with us as we reach 500 kids together
That’s it!
No pressure. No awkward conversations.
Just sharing an opportunity for others to make a meaningful impact.
3️⃣ YOUR AMBASSADOR GOAL
🎯 Your Goal: Equip 10 children
Fundraising target: $350
This simple, achievable goal becomes powerful when multiplied by 20 Ambassadors:
20 Ambassadors × 10 kids each = 200 children equipped
(Matching gifts can double it to 400!)
Every Ambassador is invaluable.

Subject: Would you help me change a child’s year?
Hi friends,
This Giving Tuesday, I’m partnering with God Said Go Missions to help children in Guatemala attend school this January. Many kids can’t start school simply because their parents can’t afford basic supplies.
I’ve joined the 500 Kids Ambassador Team, and my goal is to equip 10 children with a backpack, school supplies, and a children’s Bible.
Would you consider helping one child for $35?
Here’s my page:
