Home of the Sparrow’s Popular “A Door for Everyone” Contest Returns in October
In October, the air turns crisper and front yard decorations of orange and yellow become more plentiful.
Fall decorations are here and helping them along is the Home of the Sparrow.
The nonprofit’s popular “A Door for Everyone” contest is back.
The contest encourages families to have some decorating fun while raising awareness about housing insecurity in Chester County.
Home of the Sparrow supports women and children facing homelessness by helping them achieve housing stability and have a door of their own.
“A Door for Everyone” runs across Chester County throughout October.
Anyone can participate. Decorate a door, window, or porch for Halloween or Autumn.
Add to the awareness by downloading and printing this sign (in color or B&W) to hang near your decorations: A Door for Everyone.
Take a picture of your creation and e-mail it by Oct. 25 to Ashley Leiss, aleiss@homeofthesparrow.org.
Post your picture on Facebook or Instagram using the hashtag, #ADoorForEveryone.
Prizes will be awarded for:
- Scariest
- Most Creative
- Most Colorful
- Best Fall Décor
- Most Surprising
- Best Costume/Door hybrid
The Grand Prize winner will be featured in VISTA.Today!
A donation of $25 is welcome, but not required. A donation provides financial support and counseling to help women and mothers in Chester County attain stable housing.
“I hope that as people decorate their front doors and patios to celebrate fall and/or Halloween, they will be reminded how important it is for all our community members to have a place to call home,” says Home of the Sparrow CEO Michelle Venema.
