Do you know that your photos can powerfully tell everyone that there is no other natural food for the infant that is better than a mother’s breastmilk?
If you agree, join NNC Calabarzon as it embarks on a Photography Contest that focuses on the “First 1000 Days of Life from conception up to 2 years of age” --- and as it celebrates the “National Breastfeeding Awareness Month” this August.
With the theme “Tulong-Tulong sa Pagpapapasuso sa First 1000 Days” it is hoped that everyone in Region IV-A will be involved in continuously promoting the 1986 Executive Order 51, otherwise known as the “National Code of Marketing of Breastmilk Substitute, Breastmilk Supplements, and Other Related Products,” a national policy on breastfeeding.
Through the contest, you have a chance to win P7500 for 1st place; P5000 for 2nd place; and P2500 for 3rd place. The photograph submission starts now and ends on 27 August 2021 at 5pm. The winners will be announced on 31 August 2021 and will also be featured on our Facebook page.
Those who are interested may submit photos depicting any of the “First 1000 Days Experience” from the time of pregnancy, and during their exclusive breastfeeding of their infants (up until complementary feeding of solid foods is introduced to the child).
The aim of the contest, which is to protect, promote, and support breastfeeding as the primary method of feeding infants and young children, may be used as a guide. Furthermore, please read the above photo for the mechanics and criteria of the contest.
