    The Recess Village : School and Community Ambassador

    About Recess

    Recess is the one-stop marketplace helping families discover and book trusted camps, classes, and programs. We partner with thousands of small businesses and schools in the US supporting their growth while helping families navigate every no-school day with ease.

    About the Ambassador Program

    The School & Community Ambassador Program is a flexible, part-time opportunity for parents, educators, and community connectors who are already active in their school communities.

    Ambassadors help introduce Recess to schools and PTAs, activate partnerships, and support select school events all while representing Recess with joy and care!

    This is not a traditional sales role. It's relationship-driven, community-first, and built for people who love connecting others to great resources.
