Guidelines for Requesting a Free Sunkist Fun Lemonade Stand


SUNKIST "TAKE A STAND®" DESIGN CONTEST

No Purchase Necessary To Enter Or Win. A Purchase Will Not Improve Your Chances Of Winning.

In keeping with Sunkist's tradition of encouraging and recognizing kids to support charity, Sunkist is inviting kids 5-12 years old across America to Take a Stand® for their favorite charity and design their own lemonade stand, integrating their personality, hometown and key elements about the charity of their choice. The stand tells their story! With help from their parents, kids can repurpose boxes from home and then let their creativity loose! Kids can draw/paint pictures of themselves, their community and illustrate why the 501(c) (3) charitable cause they've chosen is near and dear to their hearts. When ready, parents or legal guardians can upload pictures of their child's stand to Facebook for the opportunity to win prizes (as detailed below).

To be eligible to enter the Take a Stand® lemonade stand design contest on Facebook (the "Contest"), participants must:

  • Be the parent or legal guardian of the child or children in the submitted entry.
  • Currently be or become a member of Facebook.com (membership is free).
  • Once a Facebook member, enter design submission on the Facebook/Sunkist profile page between 12:00 am EST on July 13, 2009 — 11:59 pm EST on September 11, 2009 and click on Sunkist Take a Stand® promotional box. Follow on-screen instructions and you will be directed to upload a high resolution photo of your child's original lemonade stand design, along with a brief description of your child's charity of choice and a comment revealing where you and your child like to shop for fresh Sunkist citrus.
