SEEKING REAL “GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY!”
I’m excited to annouce that Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures, Marvel Studios, Dolby® Laboratories and Visa Signature are joining forces for a nationwide MARVEL’S “GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY”—GUARDIANS OF GOOD contest in honor of the upcoming GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY film release!
GUARDIANS OF GOOD invites real “Guardians of the Galaxy,” young men and women (ages 14-18) from across the United States, to share their stories of how they are bettering their communities through service, science or innovation, and gives them the opportunity to connect with a galaxy of Peer Guides—who are already doing great things—to learn from their successes. Entries will be accepted now through June 29, 2014. If you are interested to learn more, be sure to check out the forms, requirements, and officials rules over at the Guardians of Good website!
Here’s a really cool part! Applicants for GUARDIANS OF GOOD will participate in online sessions with Peer Guides, who will include representatives from generationOn, Broadcom MASTERS®, NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory and Marvel’s “Thor: The Dark World” Ultimate Mentor Leadership Council. Peer Guide sessions are scheduled to take place between through June 21, 2014. The Peer Guides will discuss their personal stories of service, science or innovation as well as learnings and advice.
After the Peer Guide sessions, all applicants will then submit a short video explaining how they are improving the galaxy and what inspiration and guidance they received from their Peer Guides. The five best video entries will be selected as winners! How awesome is that?
Now you are probably wondering what the applicants would win… Each winner will receive two round-trip tickets to Hollywood, including hotel accommodations, from July 20 through July 23, 2014, to be on the red carpet at the World Premiere of Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy” on July 21, 2014; an invitation to the first-ever GUARDIANS OF GOOD INNOVATION & SERVICE SUMMIT on July 22 at The Walt Disney Studios in Burbank, where professionals and peers will share their knowledge; a backstage tour of the Disneyland Resort; and a red-carpet screening of the film at a Dolby® AtmosTM Theatre in or near the winner’s hometown. Are those amazing prizes or what?
So if you or you think you know someone is interested in applying, what are you waiting for? Enter today!
Don’t forget to connect with GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY on Facebook and Twitter! The film hits theaters on August 1st.
I’m going to have to share this with some moms of teenagers. Thanks for sharing!
What a great idea! I love how companies are encouraging our teens to better the communities.
My boys will love this movie…they are into all that galaxy type stuff. I’ll have to remember this is coming out.
