Hey, it’s Logan Morrison here…

I have partnered with the American Lung Association to create Project Lomo, a fun contest to encourage kids and young adults to get active in their community. My father died of Lung Cancer in 2010 and shortly thereafter, I started an annual baseball camp to raise money to fight lung cancer. Now, I’m asking young fans to create their own charitable projects. Project LoMo is a call to action to 8-18 year olds, asking them to create their own programs or events that help their community become a better place and/or support a specific cause that is near to their hearts, like fighting lung cancer is to me.

Here’s how to create your project & win:

Step 1: Identify a specific problem/issue that affects you, your family, or community.

Step 2: Create and complete an interesting project that will do at least one of the following:

• raise awareness and/or money for a specific cause.
• initiate social change.
• advance our understanding of what causes or helps prevent a specific illness or problem.
• succeed in getting businesses or individuals to provide money to the Project Lomo pledge.

Step 3: Tell me about your project by August 1, 2013 through a written or video essay (***include your mailing address***) and:

• email it to: Lomo@LungFla.org
• mail it to: Project Lomo, 2701 N. Australian Avenue, Suite 100, West Palm Beach, FL 33407

Step 4: Cross your fingers, wait and receive a prize:

• Approved submitted projects will receive a signed picture from me and a #5 Morrison t-shirt jersey.
• every project submitted raises money for ALA.
• five best projects will be awarded with $1,000 and a trip to Miami including a Marlins game, first pitch and more.

I can’t wait to see the difference everyone will make!

Thanks,
