Scoreboard Ambassador Challenge Overview
Ambassador Challenges is an exclusive functionality for the customers who have the Scoreboard functionality enabled.
This is for those customers who:
- Want to officially recognize Ambassadors in Anthology Encompass.
- Want to add ambassador(s) to Fundraising Initiatives.
- Provide access to the Ambassadors to create Challenges and share the Challenges to social networks.
- Wants to display and see live updates within Scoreboards using progress indicators.
When the Ambassador Challenge module is added to the Content page, site visitors can see and scroll through the available Initiatives and participate in Challenges.
The overall Initiative will show progress towards the goal in a thumbnail image and a description.
Challenges associated with an initiative are visible under the Initiative card. To go to the next page of the challenges you can click Next at the lower left.
The Challenges can be created for Class year, Designation, Geography, Affiliation, Custom data point, or General Challenges. The Ambassador Profile is visible only when an Ambassador creates a Challenge, otherwise, you can only see Challenge Details.

Progress Tracking: Challenges
On the Initiative Card, administrators can monitor the overall progress. Please note that contributions made directly through associated forms only reflect on the overall Initiative and do not reflect under associated challenges. Donations must be made through links shared via social media or emails to be attributed to assigned ambassador challenges. Therefore, the donation amounts are added to a challenge only when the donations are acquired through the members by sharing the donation link associated with a specific challenge with donors through social media platforms or email communication.
