$1500 Car Safety Video Scholarship for 2016 Fall Semester

  • 10/22/15

Safe Car InfoIn an effort to educate young drivers on the importance of car safety, Safecar.info announces a contest in which participants can enter to win one of three scholarships for the 2016 fall college semester. The prize amounts are $1,500, $1,000 and $500 respectively.

College students enrolled in a two- to four-year program during the 2016 fall semester who are interested in entering the Safecar.info video scholarship contest should make a 30-second to five-minute video telling their own car safety story. The video should be creative and convey a message related to the car safety topic. Videos can be humorous, passionate or simply honest — anything that might draw watchers in and make a difference in their lives.

Once the video is finished, it should be uploaded on the YouTube website, as well as on Facebook and one other social media platform of the participant’s choosing. The participant should then fill out the official application to enter the scholarship contest.

Three videos will be chosen from all submissions received, and the winners will receive $1,500, $1,000, and $500 respectively from Safecar.info for their inspirational work. Winners will be chosen based on originality, creativity and ultimately, the strength of the message delivered in their videos.

The deadline for entry into the Car Safety Video Scholarship Contest is December 5, 2015. Winners will be awarded on December 15, 2015.
