To be eligible for an Ambassador Excellence, the Owner must be a member of the American Donkey Association at the time the points are earned. An Ambassador Excellence is awarded to one Donkey. Points earned by one donkey are not transferable to any other donkey. There is no time limitation to attain this award. An owner may obtain an unlimited number of Excellence Ambassador awards but only one per donkey. The points assigned to one Donkey can be accumulated by multiple Owners provided each owner is a member of the American Donkey Association when the points accrue.               

An Ambassador Excellence requires at least 15 points. The 15 points must be attained from the donkey attending any event that exposes the donkey to the public.

Examples: Weddings, Birthday Parties, Visiting Senior Homes, Hospital Visits, Parades, Seminars, etc. The only requirement ADA has it that the owner provides one photo of the donkey at each event.  When the donkey has attended 15 of these events, he will be awarded the Ambassador Excellence Award. 

​

It is the responsibility of the Owner to keep records of their specific Donkey’s points. When the Owner believes they have accumulated 15 points for the title of Ambassador Excellence, they need to complete the “Application for Ambassador Excellence” form. Once verified and rendered to be accurate, the American Donkey Association shall award the applying Owner and Miniature Donkey with a title of Ambassador Excellence. Final decision on awarding of points will be determined by the American Donkey Association.
