wider national movement towards building resilient families, SingTel is launching the Open Category photo contest to coincide with the Family Day Out Carnival on 23 June at this year’s National Family Celebrations.
On the esteemed judging panel of the “Home Without Walls” Open Category contest are well-known advocates of family bonding time – Mr Lim Soon Hock, Chairman of National Family Council and the Centre for Fathering, Ms Daphne Ling, winner of the ‘Best Parenting Blog’ at the Singapore Blog Awards 2011 – and they will be joined by Mr Suhaimi Abdullah, Grand Prize Winner of the Professional Category photo contest.
To bring families closer together, the “Home Without Walls” Open Category photo contest encourages Singaporeans to submit photo entries under the following four themes relating to precious family moments with various members that make up the family: Father Figures (Fathers), Grand for a Reason (Grandparents), Mum’s the Word (Mothers), Just Kidding (Children). The Grand Prize winner for the Open Category contest will walk away with S$2,500, and the individual winners for each of the four category themes will enjoy S$500 in cash prize.
Mr Derrick Heng, Director, Segment Marketing and Communications, Digital Consumer Group, SingTel said, “We were very pleased with the enthusiastic response and participation for the Professional Category of our “Home Without Walls” photo contest held earlier and we want to continue to spread the joy of family bonding to all Singaporeans. As a leading multimedia solutions provider, we want to inspire people to spend time together and connect from the heart, often with technology as an enabler for facilitating these connections. This photo contest encourages Singaporeans to capture precious family moments, wherever they are, captured with their digital cameras or mobile phones while they are on the go.”
