Blog Comment Contest!

January 27, 2010, 10:00 am — Saskia (Uncategorized)

We’ve been posting about this for a bit..and the blog comment contest is here!

Starting in February, we will be allowing rape crisis advocates to take over our blog. Every Monday morning at 9 am we will upload a new blog post from an advocate in the city.

The blog post will remain live until Friday at 5pm, and in the interim we will be counting the total number of unique comments. That gives each advocate 5 full days to garner as much attention and support from friends, co-workers etc.  in their blog post.

The contest:
We are inviting all blog readers to comment on the blog posts. The two advocates whose posts collect the most unique user comments during their featured week will receive prize packages, provided by our sponsors: Avon & Nooka.

Rules:
Each advocate’s post will be open to comments from Monday to Friday 9 am – 5pm EST for one week. We welcome all blog readers to write as often as they like, although we will only count one comment per user towards each advocate’s total.

  1. Vicki and her organization are helping hundreds of people daily, all over the world. She is a wonderful resource and advocate. I have seen her in action and am quite proud to have her in our community, doing the work she does, to help us all. Thank you!

  2. I was blessed to meet Vicki at the SNAP National Convention. She is a mighty inspiration. I’m looking forward to learning more about her and the organization she represents. Thanks for featuring her!
