Ikea Life Improvement Project Contest wins you $100,000
Difficulty Level : Moderate ( 3 out of 5 ) Mostly people want to be a helpful force for their community, but due to lack of time or resources they can’t do that. For those people, IKEA USA’s ongoing The Life Improvement Project is best way. Essentially, this project is designed to instruct, encourage and give power to individuals to improve their lives and the lives of others in their community. The project includes a range of contests and activities to promote this local community program. So you can join this project by any of ways. Currently, Life Improvement Sabbatical Contest gives you a chance to engage with this program as well as a potential opportunity to win a year-long sabbatical of $100,000 for improving your and others lives with the help of IKEA, The Life Improvement Store. Why not try in the contest, maybe you will be the winner.

Limit: One entry is permitted per email address throughout the duration of the contest. Contestant must be 18 years old or older as of date of entry.

Then submit an essay in 2,000 characters with title on what would you do to improve the lives of others over the next year if you won $100,000.

Lastly, submit your contact information and complete your contest submission for receiving an entry in the contest. Your submitted information must comply with the contest rules.

From all received eligible entries, total fifty entries will be judged as per judging criteria to deem ten semi-finalist entries.

All interviews will be also judged based on judging criteria and five semi-finalists will be determined with the highest interview scores to complete and submit a one minute video representation of why they think that they are the perfect contestant to win the Life Improvement Sabbatical Contest before deadline. Each five finalist’s entries/videos will be posted at the contest website on November 28, 2011 for public voting.
