Draw your HERO! |
|

Tell us who inspires（鼓舞）you —and then draw. And we are giving away prizes worth more than $125 to 11 winners! Heroes can be different but they all have one thing in common. They inspire us to do better. They could be a creative artist or dancer, a wise scientist or a skillful sports star. And heroes don't have to be famous. They could be someone like a parent, brother, friend or teacher, who quietly goes about making the world a better place. Whether your hero is known around the world, or is someone closer to home who simply makes you laugh or is kind to you, we can't wait to see your drawings of them and read about who inspires you! See below for instructions on how to enter the competition. Good luck! |
