Choose901 Ambassador Program

Program Overview
The Choose901 Ambassador Program is a semester-long journey for students passionate about
sharing the magic of Memphis. As representatives for Choose901, the region’s largest
promotional campaign for the 901, Ambassadors will be responsible for bridging the gap
between the Choose901 brand and the local community.

Through brand activations, events, networking opportunities, and skill-building sessions,
Ambassadors will gain hands-on experience and make meaningful contributions to the
movement that’s helping shape the city’s future.
