disasters

When I was in second grade, we lived in Little Rock, Arkansas for 18 weeks.  My dad was on loan from Lockheed Georgia to Falcon Jet as an aircraft inspector.  And during that 18 weeks, we say 108° temperatures, 18″ of snow AND a 3′ flood.  No joking.  Snow meant I got to go the movie theater and eat leftover popcorn.  The flood meant I got to stay home with my dad in our apartment on the 2nd floor and eat LOTS of hotdogs and popcorn.  I made myself sick with Cheese Dogs and made-for-TV movies.  Wouldn’t it be nice if all natural disasters could  be seen through ONLY through the eyes of child?  For all those kids that had to see Hurricane Sandy in a far uglier light, this contest is one of many great ways we can all help.  Take a look…

Check out this Call for Entries for the Manhattan Perceived event to be held at the UN Headquarters (Manhattan, NY).  There is no entry fee and a possible $10,000 prize.  This is a great opportunity AND a great cause…
