If you're a current post-secondary student and have always wanted to do something new and fresh that contributes to the student community at your school, and also pick up skills that will benefit you for life, the Ride The Wave Youth Ambassador Programme is perfect for you!
Ride the Wave is about helping youth handle life’s ups and downs with confidence. We all face challenges, setbacks, and moments of doubt—but how we respond can make all the difference.
Through coaching and peer support, Ride the Wave gives young people space to learn, grow, and support one another. It’s about building confidence, staying resilient, and developing a mindset that helps them keep moving forward—in school, in work, or just in life.
Ride the Wave encourages youth to embrace life’s twists and turns and come out stronger on the other side.
We will always experience failure from time to time.
We can never get rid of uncertainty 100%.
And there will always be other who do better, who we may be envious of.
Do we feel down when we fail, or do we see it as a stepping stone to success - a chance to grow and do better next time after learning from our mistakes?
Do we break out in anxiety in the face of an uncertain future, or do we embrace it with confidence, and focus on what we can control?
Do we get stuck scrolling on social media feeling jealous, or do we celebrate others, learn from them, and stay the path on our own progress?
Learn to embrace failure, uncertainty and social envy, and mari kita be the best version of ourselves!
And most importantly, spread the message to others. Real learning comes not just from our own doing, but from sharing what we know with others.
Have a growth mindset! None of us are perfect, and we just need to be willing to learn!
Be a current post-secondary student, who will be on campus for the next 6 months or so.
Preferably have some experience in leadership, organising events, and engaging peers one-on-one, but if not, see the first bullet point 2 lines above!
Take part whole-heartedly in a kick-off workshop on 15 Nov 2025, to gain the necessary experience and skillsets to empower confidence in your peers! Trust us - it'll be fun!
Thereafter, design and carry out 1 outreach event on campus to raise awareness of the Ride The Wave concepts of overcoming failure, uncertainty and social envy, with the goal of dispelling stigmas and encouraging healthy habits.
Engage your peers 1-on-1 if you see them going through a tough time (for about 6 months) - provide a listening ear and just be a friend!
You'll be given a cool budget and be supported in the above! Additionally, you'll have a project team coach to guide you on the outreach event, and your very own personal leadership coach as you build up your leadership skills through your participation!
