Cox Mobile and Boys & Girls Clubs of America have launched a Fan Favorite Contest as part of their Mobile Phone Case Design Contest, allowing the public to vote for their favorite design from 21 teen finalists nationwide.
- Jadyn M., representing the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Emerald Coast, was selected as one of the finalists. The winner of the Fan Favorite contest will receive a $5,000 Cox Mobile scholarship.
“My artwork symbolizes how world peace and unity is in our reach,” Jadyn said when describing the design.
The Mobile Phone Case Design Contest challenged teen club members to create designs inspired by “A World Within Reach,” illustrating the power of digital access and connectivity in unlocking opportunities for education, creativity and innovation. The contest commemorates the 20th anniversary of Cox Innovation Labs located in Boys & Girls Clubs across the country.
On March 25, Gracie A. of Louisiana was announced as the grand prize winner, receiving a $25,000 scholarship. OtterBox will manufacture her design, which will be sold online and in Cox retail stores with a portion of proceeds benefiting Boys & Girls Clubs of America. Additionally, Gracie’s home Club in Acadiana, Louisiana will receive a $25,000 grant for a Cox Innovation Lab.
Community members can support Jadyn by voting at www.cox.com/phonecasecontest or in local Cox retail stores through April 18.
Shervin Rassa, CEO of the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Emerald Coast, highlighted the impact of the partnership:
- “Our partnership with Cox Mobile has made a lasting impact on the kids and teens we serve. Opportunities like the Cox Mobile Phone Case Design Contest and Cox Mobile Fan Favorite Contest not only inspire creativity but also show our Club members that their talents and ideas are valued.”
The contest strengthens the longstanding relationship between Cox and the Boys & Girls Clubs.
“For decades, Cox has been proud to partner with Boys & Girls Clubs of America to empower young people with the technology and opportunities they need to succeed,” said David Deliman, market vice president for Cox’s Gulf Coast market. “This contest reflects our shared commitment to fostering imagination and innovation, and we’re honored to help bring these young artists like Jadyn’s vision to life while supporting the incredible work of Boys & Girls Clubs here in the Gulf Coast and nationwide.”
