Your Broadband Story Could Be Prize Winners

The Alliance for Public Technology, which is working with CWA to promote affordable high-speed Internet access to all Americans, is urging union members to participate in a contest to promote the importance of broadband communications. The purpose of the contest, entitled "Broadband Changed My Life," is to highlight how high-speed Internet access is changing every aspect in our lives. Contest participants share their personal experiences of how and why high-speed Internet access has made a critical difference. A grand prize of $1,000, a second place prize of $500, and third place prize of $250 will go to the winning submissions. The Contest deadline is October 1.

To enter the contest go to www.BroadbandChangedMyLife.org. Local unions are being urged to help spread the word by adding a link to the contest on their homepages.
