AN ATTITUDE OF GRATITUDE ~ GIVING THANKS CONTEST

Thanksgiving

The season of Thanksgiving has arrived and it is great to feel the crisp air, prepare for friends and family visits and to remember to have an Attitude of Gratitude!  With that in mind, this is the perfect time to unveil another ActiveRain Contest.

The purpose of this contest will be about a group, a person, organization, family, etc. in your community who exemplifies an Attitude of Gratitude.  These are the people who do extraordinary things to enrich and help their fellow community members.  They exude a humble spirit with a zealous enthusiasm of giving back.

Introduce us to these people.  Help inspire us with the people who give tirelessly in your community.  Take pictures of them, let us know what they do, post events and activities that they do.  Provide us with links to their organization or events that they are involved in. 

Of course some of the most profound people who inspire us are the quiet and silent types.  These people unselfishly give of their time, talents and money without alot of fanfare.  Don't forget these people.  Whoever it is, the point is that it doesn't matter how big or small their attitude of gratitude is.  What matters is how they impact lives around them.

So are you in?  Will you share with us the people who are out there making a difference in your community?  We can't wait to be uplifted, inspired and challenged.

Here are a few simple guidelines for the contest:

  1. Use "An Attitude of Gratitude" in your blog title along with your own secondary part of the title.  Example: An Attitude of Gratitude ~ Meet Mr. Smith
  2. Post pictures , videos & links of the person or group or activity being featured.
  3. Be as descriptive as possible.  Help us to really see their hearts, their unselfish commitment and the wonderful things they are doing.
  4. At least 200 words in the post.
  5. Entries need to be in by midnight (AR time) of November 30th, 2011!
  6. Post your link in the Giving Thanks Contest GROUP.

 POINTS:

1st place - 3000 points and a Feature!
2nd place - 2500 points
3rd place - 2000 points

Each participant will receive 1000 points for taking part!  We are ready some inspiration!

The contest isn't over - the deadline is November 30th.  There are so many people that do so much for the community it is hard to make one selection.  This was a great contest - thank you!
