cause/affect 2011 call for entry

Please Note: ENTRIES MUST BE POSTMARKED BY JULY 8, 2011.

Eligibility
All design work entered in the competition must promote or support social good and actively engage in enriching our lives. All we ask is that it doesn’t contribute directly to the profit of a commercial organization. To be eligible, work has to have been designed and produced between June 2009 and June 2011.

cause/affect will also be conducting an online People’s Choice Award. Thanks to Sappi’s Ideas that Matter program, the industry’s only grant program aimed at helping designers use their talent for charitable causes, a $5,000 donation will be made to a non-profit chosen by the winner of the People’s Choice Award. All work submitted to cause/affect is eligible for the People’s Choice Award, so send in those entries! It’s a win-win! Voting for the People’s Choice will take place on the cause/affect website in Fall 2011.
