Minneapolis Aquatennial Ambassador Organization

Inspiring young women to achieve extraordinary futures by providing professional development opportunities through networking and mentoring.

This campaign is focused on supporting the AAO's goals to: increase Ambassador college scholarships, expand candidate week experiences, and increase Ambassador Team travel budget.

The Minneapolis Aquatennial Ambassador Organization (AAO) is a Minnesota nonprofit and a Section 501(c)(3) public charity.

The AAO focuses its efforts in three areas: Community, Leadership, and Scholarship.  Each year our Aquatennial Ambassadors visit dozens of communities and festivals throughout Minnesota and across North America to build strong relationships and promote the Aquatennial festival and Minneapolis. The Ambassadors also volunteer time in service for other deserving organizations.

AAO provides a candidate program for Minnesota-based community festival ambassadors to enhance their professional development and leadership skills.  At the end of the candidate program, three ambassadors are selected from the group of candidates to continue on and represent the AAO for one year.  The AAO generously provides the educational scholarships each year for the Aquatennial Queen of the Lakes and Princesses after the completion of their year of service.
