2013 Friendship Photo Contest

Throughout September, all women can celebrate their most cherished friends by entering the Confidence Coalition’s 2013 International Women’s Friendship Month Photo Contest. Entrants will submit a photo with a caption that answers the question, “How do your friendships build your confidence?”

What you could win

If you submit the winning photo, you and a friend will win a girlfriends’ getaway to Memphis, Tenn. to have lunch with IWFM spokesperson Leigh Anne Tuohy, in Memphis, Tenn. She is the real-life inspiration behind the film “The Blind Side.” Leigh Anne is also an acclaimed author, the host of the uplifting TV series, “Family Addition with Leigh Anne Tuohy,” and an advocate for women’s friendship.

The prize package includes round-trip airfare for two, two-night hotel stay, round-trip airport transportation generously provided by Express Transportation of Memphis, lunch with Leigh Anne Tuohy and two signed copies of her book, “In a Heartbeat: Sharing the Power of Cheerful Giving.”
