Veterans Video History Contest
Veterans Video History Contest
Become a part of history! Create your own oral history video and win a cash prize and a trip to Washington DC!
AVC is excited to announce the Veterans Video History Contest! The Contest urges high school students to take part in the mission of preserving the legacy of America’s heroes by collecting oral histories from veterans so that these timeless stories of valor and sacrifice are never forgotten. Students may interview veterans from across generations, and particularly if possible, those with whom our time is limited: our elder veterans of World War II and Korea. By using media to mobilize youth, the Veterans History Video Contest will connect generations and honor the service of our nation’s heroes, inspiring students to take a greater interest in our nation’s history and freedoms.
Submissions open June 20, 2016. All submissions must be postmarked no later than December 7, 2016. American Veterans Center will announce the winners early 2017.
