2014 Multimedia Youth Contest - local deadline March 17

2014 Multimedia Youth Contest: "Do Justice, Love Goodness, Walk Humbly with God" (Micah 6:8)

The Multimedia Youth Contest is a tool for parishes and schools noting how the efforts of the Catholic Campaign for Human Development (CCHD) address the root causes of poverty in the United States. CCHD is the domestic anti-poverty program of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops. You can learn more about CCHD at www.usccb.org/cchd and about our local CCHD work at www.seattlearchdiocese.or/missions.

To Participate: Materials are now available for the 2015 Multimedia Youth Contest, sponsored by the USCCB Catholic Campaign for Human Development (CCHD) with support from RCL Benziger. This year's theme is "Do Justice, Love Goodness, Walk Humbly with God." (Micah 6:8) Educators lead participants through easy steps to learn about U.S. poverty, the Church’s response, and the Two Feet of Love in Action. Youth then create multimedia work of any type (e.g. painting, video, poetry, dance, etc.) and work to educate their peers before submitting their work to the contest. The contest can be facilitated by any diocesan office – for example, the Catholic Schools, Religious Education, Youth Ministry, Social Concerns, or Hispanic Ministry office. The annual national contest deadline is March 31, 2015. Visit the contest materials now in English and Spanish!

Entries from those in the Archdiocese of Seattle should be sent to:

Deadline (local) is March 17, 2015. (This will give us two weeks to judge and send the winning entries to the national office by their March 31 deadline.)
