The Real Bratz Contest invites people who are passionate, creative, and giving to share their stories as submissions run from July 15 to September 15. The aim is to spotlight individuals who push boundaries, give back to their communities, and turn bold ideas into tangible change. Across Canada and the United States, hopeful participants can demonstrate how they turn inspiration into action, whether by launching new programs, mentoring others, volunteering, or rallying neighbors to make a difference.
Those who advance may be celebrated as Real Bratz heroes and stand to receive a meaningful prize that supports their causes. The contest looks for real stories told with honesty, energy, and a sense of purpose, and it invites entrants from diverse backgrounds to share what drives them to act.
The top prize offers $1,000 to support a youth program chosen by the winner. In addition, the winner will be interviewed and given a dedicated feature within the publication, allowing readers to learn about the person behind the story and the impact they are making in their community.
The top three finalists will also be highlighted in the Ordinary Kids Doing Extraordinary Things section, giving broad visibility to the voices and actions that inspire others across the community.
Who qualifies as a Real Bratz? A Real Bratz is someone who pushes boundaries, stands up for what they believe in, and lends a hand to those around them. They aim high, make the impossible seem possible, think outside the box, and use fresh ideas and innovations to drive meaningful change.
People who embody these qualities are encouraged to share their experiences and journeys, inviting others to witness how dedication translates into action and impact.
Submissions consist of a short video no longer than two minutes that explains what makes a Real Bratz. The video should be no larger than 20 MB.
The contest seeks stories that are both inspiring and told in a creative way. Details about the official contest page will be announced soon. In the meantime, teams and individuals can brainstorm ideas and mark July 15 on their calendars so they do not miss this opportunity.
