Just a quick note of congratulations to our week 9 and 10 sweepstakes winners - Lauren Ahrens of San Antonio, Texas and Katie Fosselius of Allentown, Pa.! Both won autographed Julianne Hough CDs.

We're continuing to draw winners every week - the more playspaces you add, the better your odds of winning! So keep adding those playspaces and help us reach 100,000 by June 30!

Our latest sweepstakes winner is Brooks Mullane of Greensboro, NC! She's on the National Wildlife Federation Team and won a Kindle 2!

This week, we're giving away an autographed copy of Julianne Hough's debut album. Be sure to add a complete playspace or complete an existing listing by 10 a.m. Eastern time Monday to be eligible!

Hot of the presses - we just added a new tool you can use to promote your team to the Spread the Word page.

Each team now has its own "web seal." If you're looking for a graphic to raise awareness for your team for your blog or website, and the banners are too big, check them out!

One of the joys of my job is getting to tell people they've won cool prizes, and this morning I got to tell Tanya Peila of Tacoma, Wash. that she won last week's sweepstakes prize: a Kindle 2. She was so excited! Tanya is on the MomCentral team and loves the KaBOOM! Playspace Finder.

Congratulations, Tanya! And if you're madly jealous of her cool prize, remember we're offering it again this week, so start adding playspaces today!

Hey everybody!

If you missed the opportunity to win a digital camera last week, never fear - we're offering it again this week as a special prize, along with an autographed copy of Julianne Hough's debut album! Just as a refresher...

If you:

Add a valid new playspace (including a photo and a rating)
OR complete a playspace listing

Before 10 a.m. Eastern time Monday (April 13), then you’ll be entered to win:
An autographed copy of Julianne’s debut album
AND a Canon PowerShot Digital Camera, too!

Every playspace you add or complete counts as an entry into the sweepstakes, so the more you add, the better your odds of winning!

Winners from the first two weeks will be announced soon. Happy hunting!

What is Jumpstart?
Jumpstart is a national early education organization that works toward the day every child in America enters school prepared to succeed. By pairing nearly 4,000 trained adult mentors with preschoolers in low-income communities for a full school year, Jumpstart helps children develop the language, literacy and social skills they’ll need to thrive in kindergarten and beyond.

Since its founding in 1993, Jumpstart has reached nearly 75,000 children in one-to-one relationships and hundreds of thousands of others in national campaigns such as Jumpstart’s Read for the Record.

Jumpstart’s national sponsors include American Eagle Outfitters, AmeriCorps, Pearson, Sodexo and Starbucks. Jumpstart is the five-time recipient of the Fast Company/Monitor Social Capitalist Award (2004-2008) and has received a 4-star rating from Charity Navigator.
