SAGIP Children's Storybook Writing Competition

My thanks to Village Idiot Savant again for forwarding me this email:

11 September 2009,

Dearest Friends and Family,

Together with the PTC-CSJ Foundation, we are launching another
project, SAGIP a storybook writing competition, open to all ages.
We're particularly excited about this, beyond the fact that there is
no age limit (haha, yes we've heard all your feedback on this), it is
something that a lot of people can be involved in. We only need a
500-750 word kids' story, on the theme SAVING OUR SEAS. It will be
illustrated by one of our awesome artist-advocates.

We strongly encourage non-writers to join. 40,000 goes to the grand
prize winner
. The books will be judged by Two-time Palanca awardee and
founder of award-winning publication The Junior Inquirer Wilbur
Victoria, Metrobank Foundation's Outstanding Teacher awardee and
INQUIRER Learning columnist Queena Lee Chua, and bestselling author,
founder of KERYGMA magazine and evangelist, Bo Sanchez.

The winning book will be published and donated to the various public
schools around the Philippines, to enhance their English Literacy
Program, and will also be sold exclusively at POWERBOOKS.

Deadline for submissions is NOVEMBER 30. To help us out, send this
email to your friends and family who might be interested.
For more details on the project, visit www.theopf.org.

Liyab Pilipinas!
