Is there an active military member or veteran in your life who inspires you?
The
Troops to Tech Careers program wants to know about it — and possibly reward you for your story!
The
Veterans Inspire contest was created to show the huge impact military members and veterans have on the community, and individuals. The Troops to Tech Careers program wants to share these inspirational stories and create an outlet for military members and veterans to be given the recognition they deserve.
All you need to do to enter is
tell CompTIA on its Facebook page in 500 words or less why you admire, appreciate, or are inspired by this person for their service to our country by July 23. Whether this is a relative, friend, stranger you've met in passing, or fellow military member or veteran, each story is going to be unique.
CompTIA will ask people across social networks to "like" their favorite contest submissions on Facebook from July 24 to 26. Out of the top five submissions chosen by voters, CompTIA will choose the top three winners.
Contest prizes are Amazon gift cards. The first place prize is $200; second place, $100; and third place, $75.
