The Campus Vote Project (CVP), a campaign of the Fair Elections Legal Network, is launching a contest to encourage students and student organizations to send in videos to Campus Vote Project that highlight barriers to voting that students face on their campus, strategies for overcoming them, or why students care about the upcoming election. The winning video will receive a $500 grant for their organization or school to help promote student voting on campus this fall.
These videos will be a great way for students to highlight how important voting is to them. The video could be about why it’s important for students to vote this election, efforts on campus to help students get to the polls, plans student groups have taken this year to help students vote, or challenges students on campus face to get to the polls.
For more information about the contest, visit www.campusvoteproject.org/contest.
The contest closes on July 20, 2012 at 11:59 pm EST.
