RSN Announces the First Ever Chronically Happy YouTube Video Contest
Share your tips for chronically happy living through video.
Glendale, CA - (June 10, 2010) — Grab your new flip camera—or any other digital video camera—and capture some tips on how you live a joyful life in spite of kidney disease. If you or someone you know has chronic kidney disease, we want to hear from you! Tell us your tips and strategies on how you manage your disease; share words of wisdom and guidance on how you keep a positive outlook on a daily basis.
“Seeing fellow patients live a joyful life helps us see a future for ourselves,” says Lori Hartwell, Founder and President of Renal Support Network (RSN). “Our written essay contest has become so popular we wanted to try a more dimensional medium.”
Videos can only be submitted by uploading your file to YouTube and emailing Renal Support Network (RSN) the link to the video. Projects should be between 30 seconds and 4 minutes. No inappropriate material will be considered. Cash prizes will be awarded to the first, second, and third place winners. The deadline for links to be emailed to us is July 18, 2010. Send the link to your video, your name, address, and phone number to video@RSNhope.org with the subject “RSN Video Contest.” Be as creative as you want!
For more details go to http://www.KidneyTimes.com EasyLink Access number 493.
Videos will be judged by a panel of media experts and people with kidney disease for appropriateness, originality, creativity, and informative recommendations.
