The deadline to enter the contest, which challenges families across the country to create and submit a short video that captures what friendship means to them, has been extended to October 14, 2013.
"We're absolutely delighted with the creativity and thought that's gone into the video entries submitted so far, and we're so excited to share them," says Just Be Friends™ founder and CEO Janice Taylor. "At the same time, we know a lot of kids have been so busy enjoying their summer they haven't had time to enter so we decided to extend the entry deadline in an effort to ensure more families could participate!"
The grand prize winner will receive $1,000 cash, a $1,000 donation to their school, an Apple iPad Mini, a backpack full of goodies, a six-month subscription to Just Be Friends™, and the opportunity to have their video featured in a national marketing campaign for Just Be Friends™.
