BetterTogether - The Kitchen Hacks Challenge - Please Share!




We’re reaching out to let you know that Better Together BC is launching a new contest on April 22nd, and we’d love you to share this news!

The Kitchen Hacks Challenge (www.bettertogetherbc.ca/contest) invites families across BC to share a short video hack, explaining how you make family meals happen in your homes. This could be a go-to recipe or prep-cipe, or tip that makes it easier for your family to sit down and eat together. The contest aims to shine a spotlight on the lifelong benefits of sharing meals.


There are two big reasons we feel this contest will appeal.

First, this contest is about inspiring each other and we all need some inspiration right now. We want BC families to share their best hacks (i.e. recipe tips or tricks) for making family meals happen in their homes.  We’re all spending more time at home these days, and we can never have too many hacks!

Second, and special this year, by sharing this contest, you’ll be supporting those who are struggling the most during this pandemic. For every entry received, BC dairy farmers will donate $100 to local food banks in BC.

Here’s how to enter:
        • Families can enter by submitting their kitchen hack video online at www.bettertogetherbc.ca/contest.
        • Videos must be 60 seconds or less and meet additional criteria detailed here.
        • The contest is open from April 22nd to May 22nd (ending at noon PST).
        • Great prizes (https://www.bettertogetherbc.ca/contest/prizes-awards1) to be won, including a $1000 Grand Prize!

Will you help spread the word? Here’s how:

        • Share the news about the contest. Just copy and paste the text above, or add your personalized touches.
        • Help promote the contest through your social media audience with our sample social posts, found below. We have many inspiring images to share; just reply to this message and ask!
        • Follow, like and share our posts on Facebook (http://facebook.com/bettertogetherbc) and Instagram (http://instagram.com/bettertogetherbc), using the hashtag #KitchenHacks2020

We can’t wait to see your best family meal hacks!
