I want whoever enters the contest to volunteer first and document it then of honest mind turn in the evidence they volunteered in their community with their written work. I decided to use part of my tax return money to start this initiative. I believe charity goes hand in hand with creativity.

Hmm gud thing tho

paypal does not accept Nigerians.

Mobsync:

paypal does not accept Nigerians.

paypal seemed the easiest way that is protected, i send money through there all the time, and plus western union can be another option, who ever enters and wins will decide how they want the money to be sent to them, plus the money shouldn't be the important thing, rather community service and thought provoking write-up should be.
