APW 50K CONTEST DETAILS
As a core staff member, you are eligible to compete in two separate contests celebrating APW reaching 50,000 enrollments!
1. Our 50K Testimonial Contest, which has one round left.
2. Core Staff Celebration Contest, which is only open to those attending the core staff holiday Zoom party on December 6.
The two are similar, but different. See below for more details on both, including links to submit your videos. If you have further questions, please direct them to Mari at mari.provencher@aupairclasses.org.
50K Testimonial Contest
Next Deadline: November 29
Contest Description
Submit a video testimonial describing a positive experience you have had with one of our many au pairs over the years. Please be as specific as possible. 50,000 is a big number, and these videos serve as a reminder that each one of those was a unique student with their own experiences.
You are encouraged to submit one video per round, but if you do, please choose a different prompt each time.
Prizes
Anyone who enters will receive a $10 Amazon gift card as a thank you for each of their submissions.
Entrants' names will also be entered into a drawing for a $100 Visa gift card!
Testimonial Prompts

Describe your favorite interaction that you’ve had with an au pair. Is it one that makes you laugh? One that makes you emotional to think about?

Tell us about a time you saw a student change and grow throughout the weekend. (Did they come out of their shell in improv class? Were they afraid of large animals, but completed a whole horseback ride in Texas?)

What’s the silliest or happiest moment you’ve witnessed or been a part of with students during a weekend?

Core Staff Contest
Deadline: November 29
Contest Description
For this contest, each core staff member will be allotted a $100 budget to spend celebrating Au Pair Weekend's milestone of 50,000 enrollments. You are invited to create a video of your celebration and submit it to this special contest.
Try to incorporate "50,000" or "50K" into your celebration. You are encouraged to be as creative as possible, because you and your fellow APW team members will all be voting on you favorite video!
Paying for Your Celebration
There are two options for ways to cover your celebration costs:
-
You may use your APW company card to spend up to $100 with a receipt.
-
If you pay for something using your own money, you can submit your receipt through the Bill.com/Divvy app and request reimbursement for up to $100. (If you spend more than $100 on your celebration, this is the best option.)
Please direct any financial or reimbursement questions about the $100 to Tanner at finances@aupairclasses.org.
Optional for City Directors
Optional: Use your local staff party to film your video! If you are a City Director holding an in-person party for your local staff, you have the option to film your party as your entry for this contest. The confirmed city party dates are:
