3rd Annual Cars 4 Causes Kids Art Contest Gets to the Heart of Donations
Could you draw a picture of Your Favorite Way of Helping Others?
Kids can, and we’re asking elementary kids (grades one through five) to do just that for our Third Annual Kids Art Contest. You can be sure they’ll come up with some creative pictures. They always do. (Click here to see previous year’s winning pictures.)
Third grade winner of the Cars 4 Causes Kids Art Contest from last year - 2008
This being our third annual contest, we’ve learned that we can count on kids to show us the central value of donating to charities we care about, whether that contribution is time or money or a car donation.
Eligible Young Artists
Eligible for this year’s contest are selected schools in the North Oxnard School District, Oxnard, Calif. (all schools north of 5th Street). There will be five winners, one from every grade level. The prizes are generous: each will receive an art kit; their school will receive $1,000; and that student’s class will be able to designate $1,000 to any non-profit organization of their choice.
In case you’re wondering who’s going to pick the winners, our panel of judges this year comes from the City of Oxnard: Mayor Tom Holden, Fire Chief Joe Milligan, and Police Chief John Crombach.
Check back soon. We’ll announce the young winners and give you a peek at their winning art as well. Learn how to donate car today!
