SUMMARY:Smile Foundation's Child for Child department's national campaign: "Students say….Let's Win the Fight over Corona"
DESCRIPTION:The nationwide CFC Campaign for inviting entries on the theme of ‘Let’s win this fight over Corona’ turned into a monumental success not just in terms of showcasing extraordinary artistic potential our children hold\, but also because it helped many of our young friends channelize their energies towards productive thinking during lockdown and keeping stress and anxieties at bay\, thus maintaining sound mental health. \nThe selection process was rigorous. All entries were first put through a plagiarization check and then a check for various specific parameters. Scoring was done and the shortlisted entries were shared with an external jury. The final result was declared on the 22nd of April’20. Prizes will be distributed after schools reopen whenever the lockdown is removed. \nWe would like to congratulate all the participants\, as every piece of art is special in its own way. \nThousands of entries\, hundreds of cutting-edge artists and a few were chosen out among the best of the best to be declared as winners! We extend our external judges a special note of thanks to Ms. Sangeeeta Kumar Murthy – Juror for Paintings & Cartoons: she is a practicing artist for the past 25 years and has been felicitated numerously for her contribution to Indian Art.

And Ms. Shivani Wazir Pasrich – Juror for Essays & Poems: She is currently Director of The Study School\, She is an extremely versatile actor\, storyteller\, theatre artist and a prominent emcee. She won Miss India World title in 1992 and has since donned many hats while also being associated with various social causes. \nThe Winners List is as follows- \n \nPlease also note that-\nThe result declared by the jury is final and is subject to no further deliberation.\nDigital certificates for all participants will be emailed to them within 15 days.
