    Volunteer Opportunity: Registration Desk Ambassador

    TEDxUStreetWomen – People’s Choice Talent Showcase

    Friday, February 21, 2026

    Busboys and Poets | Brookland, Washington, DC

    Journey to Your Promised Land (JTYPL), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, is the fiscal agent for TEDxUStreetWomen and is seeking a Registration Desk Ambassador to support our upcoming People’s Choice Talent Showcase—a high-energy, TED-style event that highlights women thought leaders, innovators, and change-makers from around the world.

    This is a unique opportunity for individuals who want to be in the room with global thought leaders, entrepreneurs, creatives, and community builders. TEDxUStreetWomen events attract attendees and speakers from across the U.S. and internationally, creating powerful opportunities for connection, learning, and visibility.

    About TEDxUStreetWomen

    TEDxUStreetWomen is a global TEDx platform dedicated to amplifying the voices of women who are bold, brilliant, and building the future. Through live events, digital programming, and international distribution, we showcase women whose ideas and stories inspire action, equity, and impact.

    About the People’s Choice Talent Showcase

    The People’s Choice Talent Showcase is a TED-style pitch competition where selected women present their ideas, missions, and ventures to a live audience. Attendees vote in real time, and finalists earn the opportunity to advance to the TEDxUStreetWomen stage. This event is part of our commitment to creating accessible pathways for women to be seen, heard, and supported on a global platform.

    Volunteer Role: Registration Desk Ambassador

    The Registration Desk Ambassador is the first point of contact for our guests and plays a critical role in setting the tone for the evening.

    Responsibilities include:

      • Welcoming guests and checking them in
      • Managing the registration list and guest flow
      • Distributing wristbands, ballots, or event materials
      • Supporting VIPs, speakers, and special guests as needed
      • Serving as a friendly, professional ambassador for TEDxUStreetWomen and JTYPL

    Who Should Apply

    This opportunity is ideal for individuals who:

      • Enjoy working with people and creating a warm, professional first impression
      • Are interested in women’s leadership, entrepreneurship, and social impact
      • Want to connect with high-level thinkers, creators, and change-makers
      • Are excited to be part of a fast-paced, inspiring TED-style event
      • Live in the DMV area
      • Have strong communication and customer service skills
      • Proactive and organized
      • Friendly and approachable demeanor

    This is more than a volunteer shift—it is an invitation into a powerful global network.

    To express interest, please reply or submit your information as instructed. We look forward to welcoming you into the TEDxUStreetWomen community.
