Good News: White House Video Contest Honors Works of Compassion

 

The White House Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives is hosting a video contest called Portraits of Compassion to highlight caring Americans who selflessly offer help and hope to those in need.

“Over the past seven years, tens of thousands of partnerships have formed between government and dedicated nonprofits, extending service and hope to millions of needy individuals both at home and abroad,” said Jay Hein, director of the Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives. “The Portraits of Compassion video-story contest is a chance to honor this vital work and inspire others to service as well.”

TAKE ACTION
Send a video of any domestic or international nonprofit organization that has partnered with a federally funded program since 2001 to serve those in need. Winning videos will be premiered during the White House National Conference on Faith-Based and Community Initiatives on June 26-27.
