For 14 years, Colgate Palmolive’s “My Bright Smile”™ Global Art Contest has given children across the globe a platform to express their creativity and showcase their artistic talents. The contest is held under the umbrella of Colgate’s Oral Health Education Program “Bright Smiles, Bright Futures®” (BSBF), which not only gives children a creative outlet to shine, but also educates them about the benefits of good oral care. Participating contestants range from children between the ages of 6 and 9 years, and the contest usually receives thousands of entries from across the country. This year, the “My Bright Smile”™ Global Art Contest saw an overwhelming response from children across Pakistan, with 61,094 entries from 709 schools. On the 12th June, an exhibition displaying various entries was held at the Alliance Francaise in Karachi, with renowned artists Ms. DurriyaKazi and Ms. NahidRaza as chief guests. Prizes were distributed amongst winners, while 12 of them were selected for their exemplary pieces of original art.
