Our World is Kind – until 30 June 2019

Posted on by

Deadline: 30 June 2019. Do you believe the world could be a kinder place? It can, through your photography.

The 2018 Our World is Kind Contest had more than 2000 submissions from more than 850 photographers in over 100 countries and viewed over 200,000 times. We received so many terrific and moving images last year that we’re back for 2019, seeking photos from talented and kind photographers around the world.

Science shows that exposure to images of kindness can help people be kinder, happier, and more grateful and optimistic. We inspire kindness in others by gathering and sharing images of kindness, compassion, joy, and love with the world.

With a total of $1,800 in cash prizes — of which $500 each are reserved for the First Place winner, the Nonprofit Honoree winner and the Public Choice winner — the contest is free to enter and has GREAT judges. Will you join the kindness movement? Submit your kind images today and #PictureABetterWorld.

Prizes:

There will be five prizes awarded:

First place, Public Choice, Nonprofit Honoree and three Honorable Mentions
The Public Choice prize is earned by popular (public) vote. You promote your entries and the world gets to pick their favorites! The image that receives the most points will win the Public Choice Prize.
The Nonprofit Honoree prize will be awarded to the photo that most powerfully tells the story of a nonprofit (charity) or NGO and their community impact. 50% of the prize will be awarded to the photographer, 50% of the prize will be awarded to the featured nonprofit.
First Place: $500

Public Choice Award: $500

Nonprofit Honoree: $500 (50% awarded to photographer, 50% awarded to featured nonprofit)
