We like social responsibility.
We’ve always liked it—even before it became the popular thing to do. That’s why we’re partnering with Operation Christmas Child.
We are offering a unique opportunity to see the fruit of your labor—to go hand deliver shoe boxes to needy children.
In a hundred words or less, tell us why we should send you on a shoe box distribution trip. If you’ve got video or pictures somewhere out on the Web, post your link—we want to see and it’ll up your chances of winning.
The Winner will be chosen based on their compelling story and will be invited on a free international distribution trip with OCC in Spring 2010 (see the official contest rules).
So get ready to flex your social responsibility muscle and your creative muscle, too.
