Colors of Life announces the 2011-12 Fifth Edition of the Colors of Life International Photo Contest. An International Photo Contest providing an opportunity for photographers to submit and exhibit their works in the United States and internationally. CONTEST THEME: “Every Child Matters”
This year’s competition will support the activities of Every Child Matters Education Fund, a non-profit, non-partisan organization based in Washington, DC providing advocacy for various issues of critical importance to children, including:

* Access to affordable, comprehensive health care services
* Early care, learning opportunities and after school programs
* Reducing poverty
* Eliminating violence, neglect and abuse against children in their homes and communities

Globally, misery has a child’s face. According to leading humanitarian organizations fighting global poverty, children suffer disproportionately from misery and mistreatment. By supporting Every Child Matters Education Fund through the 2011-12 International Photo Contest and its visual impact, Colors of Life is harnessing the evocative power of photography to help improve childrens’ lives.
