Subject: Barbie wants to give you money
The Entertainment Industry Foundation and Mattel have launched the
Barbie Arts Teacher of the Year Search.
A woman just contacted me from Mattel, claiming that very few
nominations have been submitted. If you know of an arts teacher working
with students ages 6-12, this may be easy money to buy instruments,
costumes, and/or arts supplies.
Money goes to fund school arts programming
20 regional finalists will get $5,000
1 teacher will get $15,000
Deadline is March 31, 2004
There is an official nomination form and detailed information available
at
