September Contest Winners

livingwithadd — Wed, 03 Oct 2007 15:00:08 CDT

Here are the winners of the September 2007 ADHD Awareness Contest

Name: akajinngaa
Prize: 6 Month Subscription to the ADD Audio Library
Submission:I think that for ADHD Awareness, a great way to be seen by many is by posting information on the back of cereal boxes!! As an adult, I still love to stare at the back of a cereal box and find secred clues spread about the colorful boxes. Even have a sort of "awareness contest" where kids or adults send in so many boxtops for an adhd organizer tool. It woud also be a good way for kids to know that they are not alone out there and a good way to get people with or without adhd an inside look...

Name: tweeter47
Prize: 3 Month Subscription to the ADD Book Club
Submission: We all have an understanding how the public lacks the knowledge and understanding of ADHD which is a chronic neurobiological disorder. I think a good way to spread the news is to air a movie or TV show about this disorder. Instead of a show called "Wife Swap" and or "Survivor" it would be a series whereby professionals and doctors switching lives with an ADHD family. This will clearly shead light on what really takes place in a home with an ADHD child/children. I would love the name of the show to have something referenceing "THIS SURELY IS NOT THE CLEAVER FAMILY". I would love to swap my life for a couple of weeks with anyone who does not believe that this disorder exsist. You see I have ADHD along with my husband and 3 adorable children. The movie could reflect both the humerous and the challenging sides of ADHD. Thanks for reading.

Name: addwomen
Prize: A Copy of Odd One Out: The Maverick’s Guide to Adult ADD Submission: i would organize an ADHD Awareness walkathon to raise money for research on ADHD as well has making sure the media does all kinds of coverage for the walkathon.You see i am a female adult who has ADHD and i believe there needs to be more awareness into this chemical imbalance in the brain.

Name: Lyndy-Lou
Prize: A copy of the DVD Me, My ADD Coach, and I
Submission: We need a rock concert featuring various artists with ADHD along with politicians, actors, actresses, celebrities with ADHD to attend and support education, awareness and acceptance of the Gift of ADHD. Embrace your Gift could be the slogan on the t-shirts (bright orange t-shirts) and we could also have bracelet bands with the same slogan. ADHD is hugely impacting our world today. It is time to wake up and smell the coffee. Love and Blessings to All, lw.

Name: AnnB.
Prize: A copy of the ADD Audio Coach
Submission: HI, My suggestion is to make a button to wear that says Ask Me About AD/HD. THis way everywhere you go anyone could ask you about it. You could give them lots of information and refer them to web sites and places to go to get more information.

Name: BloomWhereYouAre
Prize: A WetPaint T-Shirt
Submission: Another idea I have had is to adress the school district and have an ADD/ADHD day for the kids. At this children who have ADD/ADHD can do posters that show their creative side, or high intelligence for their peers to see, this would both empower the children and help to change the ADD lableing into a more positive one. I think the staff would greatly benefit from this also.

ADHD Awareness Bracelets
An 8 year old boy with ADHD was encouraged by his physcian to start this website and to sell rubber bracelets that have so commonly been worn for other conditions--cancer, etc. The bracelets sell for $3. Avery was being teased by classmates about his ADHD and he wanted to do something to show that ADHD can be a good thing.

The bracelets are cool looking in a twist of bright blue and white with "ADHD Rocks" printed on them. Attention Deficit Disorder Resources ordered a number to sell at their fall conference and all our Board members are wearing them as well. Let's create a groundswell.
