Pledge for Better Health - GIVEAWAY TOO!

Tuesday, April 13, 2010

I was contacted regarding a great PLEDGE FOR HEALTH INITIATIVE. GE is helping to raise awareness for the “Healthymagination” initiative, Pledge for Better Health, in support of National Women’s Health Week (May 9 – May 15). My post, Maintaining Weight at Middle Age & Beyond, caught their eye.

GE wants to encourage women to take an active role in their own health and the health of their loved ones through a Pledge for Better Health. If you haven’t read/heard about it yet, definitely take a look! Heck, I want to encourage women, men & children to all take an active roll in their own health so no matter who you are out there, check out the site & take the pledge!!! Lots of great info on the site too!

Here the details about the GE Healthymagination initiative & MY GIVEAWAY

Encouragement of women to take an active role in their own health and the health of their loved ones through Pledge for Better Health.

Also, there is a $20 gift card GIVEAWAY for one of my readers that takes the pledge. The gift card will be for Dick's Sporting Goods.

The rules of the blogger specific contest are as follows & I am sharing them with you to be open & honest:

Encourage my readers, YOU PEOPLE OUT THERE, to Pledge for Better Health and the blogger (me) who has the most individuals pledge by May 9^th will win a grand prize.

Ask my readers, YOU PEOPLE OUT THERE, to post their pledge link here on my blog.

When the promotion ends, the GE representative will come around to each blog (mine) and manually add up the totals of the pledge links to determine "a winner" with the most pledges. To be honest, I was not even thinking about that grand prize. In fact, I did not understand the email at first & had no idea I was eligible for a prize. I was just wanting to get people out - women, men & children - to get healthy & improve the quality of their lives. I had to write the representative after the fact to ask about the grand prize winner because I had not even really thought about whether that meant I was in a contest to win too. I know, I am "a bit slow".

TO BE PART OF THE GIVEAWAY FOR THE $20 Dick's Sporting Goods GIFT CARD HERE IS WHAT YOU NEED TO DO:

1. Submit a Pledge for Better Health at this link & provide your pledge link in your comment here.
2. For an additional entry, mention this contest on your blog & link back here.
3. For even another entry, even though I don't do Twitter, tweet this out & let me know in a comment here. And yes, I am thinking about "going Twitter". I know, crazy me! No decisions yet.
4. Open to US residents only. Sorry.
5. Contest remains open through May 8, 2010. I will announce the winner on May 10, 2010.

Again, I just want to encourage women, men & children to take an active roll in their own health. No matter who you are out there, check out the site & take the pledge!!! After you take that pledge, promise yourself, if you don't already, to get up & move more and to also add healthier food options into your life!

Don't forget, place your pledge link in the comments! If you don't want to join the contest, just let us know what you are doing to take an active roll in your own, your family & your friends health. Spread the word!

You can pledge multiple times & as long as you put the pledge link in the comments of this post, it will count for another entry in the Giveaway for the gift card. You can pledge, Twitter and Facebook share every day between now & May 8th for a separate entry for the gift card.

Again, feel free to share this on your Facebook page, Tweet it out for a separate entry and mention it on your blog for a separate entry. Just let me know in the comments of here about the pledge, Tweet & Facebook sharing.

Also, check out the Pledge for Better Health site for lots of great info to help you on your quest for a healthier life!
