I found the following in the latest edition of APH News a newsletter
published by the American Printing House for the Blind, Inc. Thought I'd
pass this along.
 
Lions Clubs International to Award $5,000!
Lions Clubs International is offering an essay contest for students who are
considered visually impaired and who will be 11, 12 or 13 years of age on
November 15, 2010. One grand prize winner will receive an award of $5,000.
If able to travel, Lions Clubs International will provide accommodations and
round-trip travel expenses to Seattle, Washington, for the winner and one
parent to accept the award at the Lions International Convention, June 29 to
July 3, 2011.
 
The theme for the essay is "Power of Peace." Each essay must be submitted
with a completed entry form. Essays must be no longer than 500 words in
length, submitted in English, typewritten in black ink and double-spaced.
 
A Lions Club must sponsor participants! If students in your
school/organization would like to participate, it will be necessary for you
to contact your local Lions Club. You can find information about the nearest
club on the Lions Clubs International Web site at www.lionsclubs.org. You
will see a link to "Find a Club," or you can simply keyword search "find a
club" in the search box. Once again, please note that a school/organization
cannot submit entries directly, but must work with its local Lions Club.
 
If you have questions, or need help in getting in touch with a local Lions
Club, please contact Kristopher Kempski, Public Relations Specialist, Lions
Clubs International at: 630/468-6835, or e-mail:
Kristopher.Kempski at lionsclubs.org.
