Once a quarter, we and our friends at Eat Breathe Thrive bring together our communities to answer your most pressing questions about eating disorder recovery and spread the word that recovery IS possible!
Hello friends and supporters of great causes –
It just so happens that the Oscars fall within Eating Disorders Awareness Week, on March 2nd. Why not support our education, support, and advocacy efforts while you wait to see if your favorite movie or actor will win?
The spotlight is on, and the stage is set for a blockbuster event! We’ve partnered with Thropic Games to bring you the ultimate “Gaming for Good” challenge—where your picks could be award-winning!
Test your Hollywood knowledge, make predictions, and compete for a cash prize while supporting The Eating Disorder Foundation’s mission to be an effective resource in the prevention and elimination of eating disorders through education, support, and advocacy.
This is your official Movie Awards invitation—don’t miss your chance to shine. Stay tuned for the grand premiere!
Here’s how it works:
- Click on this link now until the red carpet event starts to make your picks.
- Enter your email address and pick the best answers that you think will happen. Do your research! Then submit your challenge.
- This will take you to the donation page. Donation to play is $20.
50% of entry fees go to EDF. 50% goes to the winner of the game! Simple math proves how powerful this concept is….if 1,000 friends of EDF participate in this pool, EDF will receive $10,000 in passive donations – and one winner goes home with $10,000!
Invite all your friends and family to participate by sharing this email or link to the pool! The more participants, the more donations to EDF! So please share with everyone you know who likes to have fun, create social impact with their dollars (it’s only $20!), and have a chance to win some cash.
Thank you all. We hope you find this fun!
