Starting on March 12,
Shelter Insurance® will begin accepting entries for their 5th annual
"Thankful for Our Communities" essay contest. Five winners of the
contest will each receive a $5,000 grant for the charity of their
choice and a $100 Visa® gift card for themselves.

To win, contestants must visit Shelter lnsurance.com/Thankful
to enter their essays about what makes their communities special.
Essays must be between 3,000 and 6,000 characters long (that's
roughly 350-1,000 words), and contestants should encourage others to
vote for their essay. The essay that receives the most votes will
win one of the prizes. The next nine essays with the most votes will
be submitted to a panel of Shelter judges, who will choose the four
remaining winners. Entries will be accepted until March 30, 2018;
voting ends April 6, 2018.

The
contest is a good opportunity to continue that tradition
according to Frank Thompson, Vice President of Marketing. "This
contest is always very well received and gives us the
opportunity to help people point out the many positive aspects
of their communities, find out what's important to the citizens
of those communities, and help support those causes."
