This year, we would like to recognize kids who are making a difference in the lives of others. Do you have a daughter or son who saw a problem in your community and set out to resolve it? Do you know a student or neighbor who volunteers for an organization close to their heart? If you know a child who inspires you and others with their selfless acts, we would love to hear their story.

We’ll help one child continue their good work by making a $5,000 donation, in their name, to the charity of their choice. The winning entry will also receive a $500 CWDkids gift certificate, and recognition in a future catalog.

Rules to Enter:

• Submit a short essay, with or without photos, telling us how a child(ren), age 12 or younger, in your life helps others.
• Please include your name and phone number, the child(ren) ’s name and age and the name, address and phone number of the child’s parent or guardian.
• Entries should be submitted via mail to CWDkids Care, 3607 Mayland Court, Richmond, VA 23233 or via email to CWDkidsCare@cwdkids.com
• Entries must be received by May 1, 2009. The winning entrant will be notified by June 1, 2009. Due to the high volume of entries, we are unable to contact all entrants personally. No phone calls please.
• Submission is considered permission for CWDkids to publish pictures and essay and to use them for promotional purposes. We regret that we cannot return entry materials.
