Minwax, a manufacturer of wood finishing and wood care products, announces the last call for entries to the Do Good With Wood Award program.
The program is open to virtually anyone who has been involved in a wood finishing project that has helped the community: through DIY groups, craft or hobby groups, school woodshop classes, clubs, guilds, parent organizations, or simply on his or her own. First Prize is a $5,000 cash grant, a supply of Minwax products, and a consultation with author and wood finishing expert Bruce Johnson. Second Prize is a cash grant of $2,000 and a supply of Minwax products. The deadline for all submissions is December 31, 2014.
"Year after year, we are so gratified to see the pride and satisfaction evident in every project, large and small, submitted by volunteers who enjoy woodworking and wood finishing," said Janet Krakow, vice president, marketing, Sherwin-Williams Wood Care Products. "We hope that all those who have used their skills to improve their communities–giving freely of their time and creativity–will submit their projects for consideration."
The winners will be announced in early spring 2015 and the names posted on the Minwax website at minwax.com. All eligible applicants are encouraged to enter by writing a summary of recent woodworking or wood finishing projects that have been completed for the purpose of enhancing their communities and helping others.
