Draw Your Sun Contest Winners!

Earlier this year 8th Continent had a package re-design and we wanted to share our new sunny perspective with everyone! The best way we thought to spread some sunshine was to give back to schools all across the country. So we created a contest where kids and adults could submit drawings of their own suns for a chance to support the K-12 school of their choice.

From thousands of suns, 50 winners were voted on and 50 others were selected by a panel.  The schools of the winning suns will receive a $1,000 Blick Art Materials gift card to redeem for art supplies.

We want to extend a special thanks to Blick Art Material. They’ve been devoted to enriching student’s art, learning, and life experiences for 100 years!

Also, a few of the winning suns will be featured on the side of our packaging to be seen nation wide around November!

For those participants who’s suns weren’t selected, they are still amazing and helped a great deal in spreading awareness for the need to support the arts in education.

Lastly, we want to send a giant congratulations to all of the winners and thank everyone for participating in the Draw Your Own Sun Contest! Click here to view all of the winners!

Keep spreading sunshine!

Nice Job, Mom Prize Winner for July: “I Will Destroy You”

As mentioned in a previous post, 8th Continent Soymilk has a place online for moms to share their best (and funniest) mommy stories. It’s a celebration of what it’s like to be a real mom, and how sometimes you can’t always be perfect.  Not only is it fun to submit your story and read other mommy mishaps, but you also have a chance to win one of three amazing prizes. We call this the “Nice Job, Mom” contest.

We’re really excited to announce the first prize for July: ONE YEAR of house cleaning by Merry Maids, has just been awarded to Lis E. for her hilarious story, “I Will Destroy You” about how after seeing a few ‘big boy’ cartoons, her two year old son took one look at their pastor at church, who was wearing a white robe and a large ceremonial staff, pointed at him in a warrior stance and declared…well you can read it for yourself here.

Lis is set to tell her story on the Broadminded show on the XM radio channel 155, tomorrow at 3pm EST. So tune in! It should be a good laugh.

I can just hear the sigh of moms everywhere saying, “that prize would be sooo nice, I want that!” Luckily we’ve got three prizes left (a few days left for August). So head to www.facebook.com/8thcontinentsoymilk and submit your mommy faux pas for a chance to win a room makeover from Home Line Furniture and automatically be entered to win a vacation package for two from Caravan Tours.

So, Nice Job, Mom! We can’t say it enough and the more stories we get the more we love saying it.  And congratulations again to Elizabeth E.—all of us at 8th Continent hope you enjoy the heck out of that Merry Maids cleaning service for a year!!!
