Who is your Role Model? - Contest for International Women's Day 2006

It is contest time again...Gear up to send in your entries.

Who is your Role Model?

Our expectation from all of you is pretty simple. We want the women here to care more than others think is wise, risk more than others think is safe, dream more than others think is practical and expect more than others think is possible. We believe that inspiring such excellence is the best way to celebrate International Women’s Day, which falls on March 8th

Hence, we are announcing this “Who is your Role Model?” contest. Please write a short essay about your role model and win a fabulous prize! More than the prize, your writing would have motivated several members of our community to excel!

Here are the details for the contest…


Describe someone you regard as your role model, a woman whom you admire. Describe the qualities and attitudes of your role model that you consider as worthy of emulation by members of IndusLadies Community. Your role model can be a woman from any walk of life - your mom or any one within your family, a social worker, an artist, a sportsperson, any professional whom you know like your doctor, teacher, a politician, a national leader, etc.


After writing a long letter, Abraham Lincoln ended the letter by saying, “Sorry for the long letter, I didn’t have time to write a shorter one”. Please take the time to limit your entry to less than 300 words. Winning entry will be judged on both style and substance.


Contest is open till - March 31st, 2006

Happy Women's Day

Hello Ladies,

Wish you all a very Happy Women's Day.

Have fun and let this day be a nice memorable one for each one of you.

Hope you all took note of the 'who is your role model' contest.

Go ahead and post about your women role model. We are awaiting to see lots of interesting and inspiring entries.

 

Rush in your entries - the winning entry awaits an Exciting Gift!

Hello Ladies,

We thought you gals would be excited to send in your entries for this "Who is your Role Model?" contest. That too the contest being about the women who has inspired or impressed you in your life!

It is a bit surprising rather shocking , to note that very few of you only came forward to write about your women role model.

Is that there are only fewer women in our IndusLadies Community impressed by some other women in their life. That might not be true .

So, hurry, rush in your entries for the contest. You can send in more that one entry and it needs to be about women who inspired or impressed you.

Contest is open ONLY till Mar 31st 2006.
An exciting gift is awaiting for the winning entry...Don't Miss it!

HEARTY CONGRATULATIONS - Vidya

Vidya had posted multiple entries for the contest. Though she wanted to keep one of her entry non-competitive, reading through all her entries, this what the judges had to comment about it...

The role models were ordinary women whom she has come across in her life
Those women have kept others above their own self
The narration about those role models clearly focuses on their outstanding characters
