GENESSA -- CONTESTS!
Sometimes sweepstakes are referred to as contests, but they're not the same thing. Unlike sweepstakes, in which your chances of winning are literally the luck of the draw, contests rely on someone's assessment of your talent or achievement in a specified area. The qualifications for a sweepstakes might include, for example, entrants of a certain age, or residents of a certain geographical area. A contest might or might not also have such restrictions but it also requires the entrant to do something: write an essay or a song, submit a photograph, produce a video, cook a dish, or do some other specified task. Needless to say, there are a lot more sweepstakes out there than contests, but on this page you will find contests for which you may or may not qualify, but you won't know unless you look, and maybe try! If you find a contest that seems right up your alley, give it a shot. You might be more talented than you know!
