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

Regional Ambassador Leads

Regional Ambassador Leads (RALs), consisting of dedicated Mozilla Reps and exceptional Student Ambassadors, coordinate marketing campaigns and community activities in their region. Depending on the region, RALs may lead a team of Regional Ambassadors. Their duties include:

  • Guiding and advising the Firefox Clubs and Student Ambassadors in their region
  • Recognizing and rewarding students who have done an *amazing* job
  • Aiding FSA members in hosting regional events
  • Planning and executing regional meetups, trainings, or activities for Clubs and Student Ambassadors

Currently RALs are based on nomination by the Executive Board. For a list of existing RALs, see here.

Firefox Clubs

Want to meet other Ambassadors at your local university and work with them to promote the Mozilla mission and our projects?

Firefox Clubs are a key grouping of Student Ambassadors at your school which function as Mozilla's liaison at these institutions. As a Firefox Club, you will work as a team to help others learn about our products, grow the Mozilla community (at your school), host events, teach the web to your school and community, and participate in campaigns!

While there are several reasons to create (or participate) in a Firefox Club, here are just a few:

  • Leadership experience
  • Recognition in your school and local community
  • Gain experience that will be a huge plus when applying to the Mozilla Reps Program
  • Opportunity to level up your FSA experience by exploring higher roles in the FSA Program Structure
  • Mozilla gear and prizes!
