Culver's has launched its first Hometown Hall of Fame Contest. From now through Dec. 5, guests are encouraged to share a story of their ideal local hero for a chance for their nominee to win $5,000.
"We're proud to support our local communities throughout the year," said Craig Culver, co-founder and CEO of Culver's. "The Hometown Hall of Fame contest recognizes heroes who go above and beyond to make a positive impact. This contest is our way of saying 'thank you for all you do.'"
For the Hometown Hall of Fame, a hero can be defined as anyone who makes a difference; for example a firefighter, police officer, teacher, nurse, volunteer or parent. Both the nominator and the nominee must be at least 18 years of age.
Guests can read the hero story submissions on Culver's Facebook page, vote on a daily basis and share the contest via Facebook, Twitter and email.
Culver's will select the winner from the top 20 vote-getters. That person will receive $5,000 to help keep up the good work in their community. For highlighting their efforts, the person who nominates the winner will receive a $350 Culver's gift card.
