I was perusing www.girlsandwomen.com today and learning about the G(irls)20 Summit and the website's initiative to empower girls and women in developed and developing countries around the world.
It really is an interesting and important initiative, so I encourage anyone who doesn't know about it to check it out!
Because I was moved by this and I have a couple of weeks before I am eyeballs-deep in weddings, I have decided that it's time for a contest!!
This one is a little different than previous giveaways...here is the scoop:
I am calling this Blossoms for Change and am looking for you to nominate the girls in your life that are making a difference...be it in their school, community, nationally, internationally, etc. Do they volunteer? Do they tutor? Do they coach a sports team? Are they active in the community? In a youth organization? Maybe they are a teacher...It's open to girls of any age!
Submit a photo as well as a short paragraph on why you're nominating your girl. All of the pictures and blurbs will be posted in the Blossom Ave Facebook page and everyone will be able to vote for the girl they think most deserves the title of 2011 Blossom for Change. The winner will receive a 1 hour photo shoot at the location of their choice and can include whomever they would like with them in their session.
Send your nominations to blossom.ave@gmail.com ...entries close on Friday, May 20 at 11pm. Nominees will be posted for voting to begin by noon on Saturday.
Let's see those girls that are making a difference!
As a parting shot, here's my little 14201!
