Safest Families in America

Safety is an important issue for most American families with moms and dads serving as the biggest champions for their families. To celebrate and honor those who put safety first at home, four safety-focused brands have teamed up to find the Safest Families in America. Through an online contest sponsored by Zarbee’s Children’s Cough Syrup, First Alert, Inc., Puj and Shield-Safety, families can share videos showcasing their commitment to safety for the chance to win more than $3,500 worth of safety products and be named one of the Safest Families in America.

“Safety is an incredibly important factor when it comes to good parenting,” said Kathy Scoleri, founder of SafeMama.com and a judge for the nationwide contest. “I’m excited to see how families are living safe lives and to provide educational resources to other parents who may need some extra help protecting their families.”

Other contest judges include William M. Smith, aka “Firefighter Bill,” a fire engineer and paramedic for the Roseville Fire Department in California and a key representative of www.FireFacts.org, along with safety experts from each of the sponsoring organizations. 

Video entries may be submitted from April 11 to May 15, 2011 at www.safestfamilies.com.
Entries will be judged based on appropriateness to the purpose of the contest, originality/creativity of video and video quality. All video submissions must be the original creation of the entrant and will not be returned. The three families that best exemplify safety, as determined by the contest judges, will be selected as winners and announced on or around May 24, 2011.

The grand prize packages include:
  • A lifetime supply of Zarbee’s Children’s Cough Syrup plus a $1,500 college fund grant
  • A whole-home safety prize package from First Alert that includes $1,100 in products
  • A Shield-Safety Revolutionary Care Center
  • One Puj Tub, signed by designer and Puj super star Katie, and two pairs of Puj Bootis, handmade by Katie. Winning families also will be part of Puj’s Exclusive Product Testers, getting Puj products and updates before they are officially announced.

  • Made from a soft, non-slip, PVC- and BPA-free material
  • Fits in any standard bathroom sink
  • Conserves water, energy, and space!

Know Any Gymnasts? They Could Win Lessons from Nastia Liukin

Five-time Olympic Medalist and World Champion Nastia Liukin and Supergirl have teamed up to offer a chance for a dedicated gymnast to meet Nastia and get a private lesson from her. Gymnasts can also enter their USAG Gym to win $10,000!

Supergirl Sweepstakes:
http://sweepstakes.supergirl.com

Join Supegirl on Facebook:

Follow Supergirl on Twitter:

Official Site:

Supergirl at JCPenney.com:


The Supergirl by Nastia collection features trend-right, affordable apparel that encourages a message of empowerment, creativity, strength, intelligence and independence—the symbolic attributes and S-Shielf of Supergirl, the iconic DC Comics super heroine. The collection, created for today’s 4-12-year-old girls, will be available exclusively at JCPenney – in stores and on jcp.com.


Warner Bros. Consumer Products (WBCP), on behalf of DC Comics, and JCPenney and five-time Olympic Medalist and World Champion Nastia Liukin debuted her new collection, Supergirl by Nastia over the summer. Nastia did a five-market tour JCPenney stores around the country where she provided young girls motivational advice on achieving their goals, feeling confident and being smart, strong and empowered—being a Supergirl. Nastia also introduced her new fun, affordable lifestyle collection, Supergirl by Nastia, available exclusively at JCPenney stores nationwide.

“The Supergirl S-Shield is considered a universal symbol of girl power and we’re looking forward to celebrating with Nastia and fans around the country as we unveil the highly anticipated Supergirl by Nastia collection,” said Karen McTier, executive vice president, domestic licensing and worldwide marketing, Warner Bros. Consumer Products. “Today’s girl is truly a Supergirl and we are proud to be partnering with Nastia Liukin and JCPenney to bring the entire collection to life at retail for all girls and their parents.”

The line retails from $20 - $38, making it affordable and exciting for girls to style themselves like a Supergirl. The collection will include active fleece, dresses and tunics, knit pants, signature Supergirl tees, dancewear, fashion leggings, shrug tops and more.

For the past four years, Warner Bros. has been supporting female athletes with the Supergirl Jam, the only large-scale, all-girls action sports competition and lifestyle/music festival. The Supergirl S-Shield is the universally recognized symbol of strength and leadership under which today’s sports girls unite. These “actionistas” embody the intelligence, independence, strength and creativity of the Supergirl brand.

Contest opp: Moms & Dads Get the Chance to Change Careers, Launch a Business, or Have Free Childcare!

The Dockers® brand is challenging men to love what they do or get busy doing what they love by presenting one lucky winner with $100,000 (post tax!) in the “Wear the Pants Project” contest. The Dockers® brand is also giving away an additional 43 “Man Grants” (total value: over $75,000 in services, tools, resources, or cash) each week through the end of November 2011.

The contests are about encouraging men to take action – whether it’s that small project that never got done or a bigger life’s passion. To enter the contests, men must submit a plan for actualizing their dreams, whether professional or personal, on the Dockers® Facebook page.

“Dockers® wants to help men do what they want to do, and inspire them to come up with a plan to get it done,” says Jennifer Sey, senior vice president of global marketing, Dockers®. “We’ll provide them with a little extra encouragement and, for 44 lucky winners, the resources they need to get there.”

Since late 2009, Dockers®, the brand that has defined khaki pants for more than 25 years, has asked men to boldly “Wear the Pants” in a provocative global ad campaign that celebrates a new style of masculinity – one that blends accountability and sensitivity, for the man who knows how to change a tire and a baby’s diaper. This year, Dockers® is taking the campaign – and their fans – to the next level, providing the resources to help men realize their potential.

Win $100K to Turn Your Day Job into a Dream Job

Launching today and continuing through March 15, 2011, men who are ready to change their life’s story will be invited to enter their plan at the Wear the Pants Project tab on the Dockers® Facebook page. The tab provides a video and other details about the $100,000 contest and serves as an entry point for their application.

For inspiration, Dockers® is sharing films and stories about several real men who embody the spirit of the Wear the Pants Project, men doing what they love – from artists to architects, philanthropists to filmmakers. These real stories are also available to view on Dockers.com, where visitors will find an overview of the Wear the Pants Project.

The Wear the Pants Project Facebook page will showcase featured entries so that community members can vote to determine the Top 50 plans (between February 1 and March 15). A panel of experts will review the Top 50 and select five finalists, with the community again voting on the final winner from April 25 – May 1. The winner of the $100,000 prize will be announced on May 

2. The winner also receives a year’s worth of Dockers® khakis, so he can Wear the Pants while pursuing his interests.

The first 500 entries receive a free pair of Dockers® khakis. Every entrant will get a sharable coupon for 30% off Dockers® khakis.

$75,000 Throughout the Year in Weekly “Man Grants” Help Men Define What They Want to Be

Realizing the dream isn’t necessarily about money – sometimes it’s about getting hold of the right tools or expertise. That’s where Dockers® Man Grants enter the picture.

Community members at the Win a Man Grant Facebook tab can submit a plan every week from February 1 through November 24. That’s a total of 43 winners through 2011. Those who enter plans need only sign up once, and they’re eligible all year. To participate, entrants just need to respond to the Man Grant post each Monday on the Dockers® wall.

Each weekly winner will receive tools, products, services or cash valued up to $2,000, depending on the resources he needs to put his plan in motion – it could be a software bundle, consultation with an expert in his respective field, gear, or money. Each Man Grant winner receives a free pair of Dockers® with his prize, and every entrant will get a sharable coupon for 30% off Dockers® khakis.

Best Wake-up Call Ever
Getting the word out about Dockers® Wear the Pants Project contest involves a fully integrated campaign throughout 2011, using traditional, digital and social media channels to give as many men as possible the chance to get busy doing what they love.

Wear the Pants

The Dockers® brand’s “Wear the Pants™” global ad campaign celebrates the reemergence of the khaki as the go-to versatile pant in a man’s wardrobe. The tongue in cheek campaign encourages men to, once again, Wear the Pants™.

Dockers® has designed an updated and decidedly masculine collection of khakis.  The line is straightforward and streamlined, aimed at emancipating men from the cubicle khaki, giving them a stylish, grown-up alternative to jeans.

While the focus of the Wear the Pants™ campaign has been on the Dockers® brand for men, the Wear the Pants™ Project $100,000 contest and the weekly Man Grants contests are open to both men and women who want to finally do that thing they love; all entrants must be 21 years of age and live in the United States.

Dockers® continues to offer its khakis range for women, along with women’s and men’s tops and other essentials that complement khakis.

Travelocity Awards $5000 Volunteer Vacation Grant

 Travelocity (http://www.travelocity.com) believes travel has the power to change the world through experiences like volunteer vacations. That’s why, since 2006, the company’s Travel for Good® program has been awarding eight $5,000 volunteer vacation grants every year. These grants sponsored deserving Americans on trips to new corners of the world to give back with their own two hands. And today Travelocity announced the launch of a new voluntourism grants site, marking a new era for the program. This site allows volunteers to submit video applications for the voluntourism grants and gives travelers everywhere a free blogging platform to share their stories of service.
In the past, consumers filled out a written essay application for the Travel for Good voluntourism grants, and Travelocity employees volunteered their time to vote for their favorite candidates. With the launch of the new video voting process, applicants will now make a video and share it with friends and family for voting via social networking sites. This exciting innovation gives everyone a say in who should win these life-changing volunteer opportunities.
To enter the new grants contest, consumers should:
·         Visit VolunteerJournals.com. The site will walk them through, step by step, the easy process to upload their videos.
·         Then, they can use buttons to promote their videos on social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter and send it to friends and family for voting.
·         Each video should explain why the applicant deserves to win and which Signature Trip from Travelocity’s voluntourism partners inspires them.
·         Each person is allowed to vote once a day per IP address and there’s no need to create a profile or sign in, making voting a simple one-click process.
The top 25 finalists will be determined by 50 percent audience support and 50 percent quality of their videos. There are two contest cycles per year and Travelocity employees will select four winners from the top 25 finalists each cycle.

Each winner or team will enjoy a $5,000 volunteer vacation grant, which can be used to take one of the Signature Trips from Travelocity’s official voluntourism partners. Trips include:
·         Doing trail work in Alaska with American Hiking Society,
·         Developing community projects in Tanzania with Cross-Cultural Solutions,
·         Working side-by-side with scientists on a riverboat in the Amazon with Earthwatch Institute,
·         Living in a children’s home in Peru with Globe Aware, and more.
Additionally, VolunteerJournals.com provides a free blogging platform for all volunteers, including stories from past Travelocity grant winners. Travelers don’t need to win a grant or even volunteer abroad to make use of this new tool. From a local book drive to a three-month voluntourism trip, the site gives all volunteers across the globe the opportunity to share their experiences and get more people involved with the causes they care about.
