(Seguin) — Today is the deadline to submit your letters for a chance of winning $500 cash.
The deadline for the annual KWED Christmas Angel contest is 3 p.m. today. There is no need to come into the building. Just drop off letters in the mail slot attached to the front door.
Anyone is invited to write in and explain why they believe their family or someone they know is deserving or in need of $500 cash this holiday season.
The letters will be judged on the explanation and not on writing skills.
The contest started several years ago and is designed to illustrate the Christmas season’s true spirit of giving and sharing.
Nominations do not have to be based on need but may recognize those who go above and beyond in serving others or who have acted selflessly.
The winning letter will be read live on the air just a few days before Christmas as part of the contest.
The winning letter along with photos of the family will also be printed in a holiday edition of the Seguin Daily News.
All entries must include the name of the person submitting the letter, along with their address and phone number.
Letters without a name or phone number will not be considered for the contest.
The winning letter will be chosen by an anonymous panel of judges not employed at Seguin Radio KWED or the Seguin Daily News.
All letters for this year’s contest must be submitted by 3 p.m. Friday, Dec. 15, at the radio station located at 609 E. Court St.
