A Letter From the Chair:
Our
mission is to represent the Coggin College of Business as a service
group to both the University and Jacksonville business communities.
The Coggin Ambassadors offers an array of opportunities including
but not limited to, Relationship networking, community service, and
event coordination.
The Coggin
Ambassadors assist at a variety of events sponsored by CCB such as
the Business Affiliates Breakfast, the Distinguished Business
Leaders Luncheon, the Business Advisory Council meeting, Welcome
Back Cookout, CCB graduation reception, and more.
On
the second Saturday of every month, the Coggin Ambassadors volunteer
at Dignity-U-Wear from 9am-2pm. This organization donates brand new
clothes to families in need. This is a great opportunity to help
those who are less fortunate, and have fun at the same time! Food
and drinks are provided through the CCB. If you would like more
information, you can visit their website at
http://www.dignityuwear.com.
If you have
any questions or would like information about joining, email me at
giun0001@unf.edu
Sincerely,
Najoua Giuma

About Us:
The Coggin Ambassadors serve the purpose of promoting the Coggin College of' Business (CCB) to both the University
community and the business community. The Coggin Ambassadors
provide students with opportunities to contribute to the community
through volunteering, network with local business professionals, and
give back to the College, which provides their education.
On the second Saturday of every month, CA hosts a volunteer
event at
Dignity-U-Wear open to all Coggin
College of Business students.
Dignity-U-Wear is a
not-for-profit organization, which receives donations of brand new
clothes from companies such as Steinmart and VanHeusen, and
distributes them to families in need. We spend five hours doing
tasks including counting, sorting, and boxing items.
Every semester, the Coggin Ambassadors help organize and
staff the graduation reception for the CCB graduates. The CCB also
requests the assistance of the Coggin Ambassadors for the Business
Advisory Council meeting each semester. The Ambassadors check-in
the guests and are able to network with the business professionals.
Coggin Ambassadors are also able to network with members of the
business community each May when the CCB hosts the Distinguished
Business Leaders of Jacksonville Luncheon.
The Coggin Ambassadors conduct campus tours for prospective
faculty and guests and participate in focus groups in order to
provide a student's perspective on important issues. The group has
been an effective resource for the CCB since
its inception and plan to continue to make an impact in both the
University and the greater Jacksonville business community.
