UnLtd, the industry’s social purpose organisation, has announced its second annual intake of Ambassadors for Good.

Chris Freel, CEO of UnLtd comments: “Just like last year, we were overwhelmed by the interest in the program and the incredible individuals that applied. There is so much talent and passion to do good in our industry and choosing only 18 Ambassadors was incredibly hard. It’s inspiring to know that there are so many people who give a s**t across our industry and we thank everyone who applied.”

The 2022 UnLtd Ambassadors for Good are: Aidan Harper (Cartology), Ayesha Shahi (Yahoo), Cassandra Salter (IAS), Chloe do Rosario (Canva), Chris Murphy (The Hallway), Dan Flanagan (Meta), Danielle Galipienzo (Initiative), Gemma Harriss (Zenith), Harleen Sodhi (Carat), Jane Qian (The Trade Desk), Marina Mitrevski (The Iconic), Marzia Finzi (oOh!), Olivia Scott (Kaimera), Owen Kelly (Nine), Phil Hammond (Adgile), Sam Woods (ACM), Sinead Roarty (Godmother Creative Consultancy) and Stacey Goater (Ashton Media).

Nina Nyman, CMO of UnLtd adds: “We’re so excited to grow the UnLtd family with such a talented, smart and passionate group of good humans. The diverse group each brings their own unique skills, backgrounds and perspective. I can’t wait to work with our Ambassadors to channel that passion into meaningful projects that will help young people at risk.”

The year-long program will kick off in March 2022 and include a charity immersion, mentoring, events and special projects that will see the Ambassadors use their skills and influence for good to help children and young people at risk.

UnLtd has also announced an Alumni program for the 2021 Ambassadors for Good with Jade Harley, Partnership, Social & Content Director at Kaimera and Emmalee Fagerstrom, Senior Data Strategist at Yahoo taking on the role of co-chairs of the program.

Emmalee and Jade comment: “We’re thrilled to continue our roles as UnLtd Ambassadors for Good through the Alumni program. The program provided us both with a sense of purpose and connection and gave us the opportunity to put our skills to good use supporting UnLtd, the charities they support and most importantly youth at risk. We are excited to get to know the new Ambassadors as they embark upon this fantastic program, and we can’t wait to roll up our sleeves, alongside our fellow Ambassador Alumni in the year ahead.”

The Ambassadors for Good program is kindly sponsored by Yahoo, a long-term supporter of UnLtd and Hall of Good inductee.

Yahoo’s Vice President & Head of APAC, Paul Sigaloff comments: “I have no doubt most people in our industry want to leave a positive impact on the world, society and people. At Yahoo that’s what we all have in common. We’re so proud to once again support such an important program that’s building the leaders of tomorrow and creating advocates for change.”
