A Penny Saved

Thanks to J.D. of Get Rich Slowly for pointing out a contest that ING Direct is holding.  It’s a writing contest for the best children’s story with a financial/saving theme.

To support its commitment to financial education and reading, ING DIRECT has created the Adventures in Saving story-writing contest to allow people of all ages to try their hand at writing a fictional children’s story that teaches a basic financial lesson. Whether you’re a published writer or an elementary school student, we encourage you to apply! One grand prize winner in each category (children/teen/adult) will win $1,000 and get his/her story illustrated and published!

Sounds like a pretty good contest.  Not sure that I’m up to it, but I bet there are a few pfbloggers that have the capabilities to participate.  The adult category is for ages 20+. The deadline is midnight on June 30, 2007.
