American Cancer Society's Smokeout Video Contest

Filed in archive Cancer , Cases , News on October 16, 2007

Since I started smoking when I was 18, I cannot count how many times I tried to quit and failed. Every time I did, I always counted the day that I was nicotine-free. The last time I tried and didn't put that day on the calendar was when quitting finally worked.

Finally, I can already tell that I have successfully kicked that nasty habit of smoking.

The American Cancer Society, in its effort to read everyone, including teens, launched its anti-smoking campaign called Great American Smokeout.



To make the campaign on its toe they also have a Great American Smokeout Video Contest where anyone can join by making a video telling in a minute or less why one shouldn't smoke. You join the contest by uploading your video on You Tube.

First prize is an iPhone, second prize is an iPod nano and third prize is an iPod shuffle.

Thanks to Paul McGee, Senior Director of Communications and Marketing of the American Cancer Society for the heads up.
