On the heels of raising 2.6 million pounds of food and $250,000
as part of the Fill the Food Banks campaign, Shaw has launched
Shaw's Amazing Family Reunion contest, the next initiative in their
Together is Amazing movement.
The contest, launched online at www.togetherisamazing.com,
invites Canadians to create a virtual scrapbook page sharing their
story of why they would like to reunite their family. Ten deserving
families will be chosen by a panel of judges and will create their
dream family reunion, each valued up to $25,000.
"There is nothing more heartwarming than seeing families come
together," said Brad Shaw, CEO, Shaw Communications Inc. "Over the
past couple of months we've had the great pleasure of watching as
our communities united to fill food banks across Canada as part of
our Together is Amazing movement. Nothing would make us happier
than to see that sense of 'togetherness' continue."
Canadians can enter by visiting www.togetherisamazing.com from
November 29, 2010 to January 15, 2011. Entries are limited to one
per person, and applicants are asked to create virtual scrapbooks
of their family memories and their dream reunion as part of the
submission process.
"We want to bring people together. It's a pretty simple concept,
and when you think about it, it's the foundation of our business.
We're lucky to get to do it every day through our products, and
coupled with our Together is Amazing initiatives like filling food
banks and the Amazing Family Reunion contest, we're working to
bring 'togetherness' to life in very special, meaningful ways."
Shaw launched Together is Amazing in September 2010 as a
springboard for communities to come together to do amazing things.
