The goals of the Ambassador program is to broaden the public’s recognition of the Gift of Life, engage the community in its work, serve as donor and patient advocates, and boost financial support by cultivating new sources of revenue which will enable Gift of Life to maintain and further its mission.

    An Ambassador is an honest man sent to lie abroad for the good of his country.
    Sir Henry Wotton (1568–1639)

    These native villages are as unchanging as the woman in one of their stories. When she was called before a local justice he asked her age. “I have 45 years.” “But,” said the justice, “you were forty-five when you appeared before me two years ago.” “Señor Judge,” she replied proudly, drawing herself to her full height, “I am not of those who are one thing today and another tomorrow!”
    State of New Mexico, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
