Parenthood Is…

In conjunction with NBC”s new show, Parenthood, NBC and Boys & Girls Club of America have teamed up to explore the definition of parenthood – The Parenthood Project. And, you can participate and help raise money for a great cause at the same time.

What is the Parenthood Project?

The Parenthood Project is a unique partnership between NBC and Boys & Girls Clubs of America. Our goal is to celebrate and showcase the many facets of family life, so we want to know what parenthood means to you. For every submission, a donation of $20 will be made to Boys & Girls Clubs of America’s Family Strengthening Initiative, which provides resources to improve the lives of children, parents and the community. Thanks for participating in this great cause.

How to Participate

There is a limit of one donation per user, but you can submit your definition of parenthood in one of two ways:

1. Twitter: All fans have to do to submit is to use the hashtag #parenthoodis, followed by their personal definition or explanation.

• Example:  #parenthoodis a constant labor of love or #parenthood is pretending to be a fairy princess in public & not caring who’s watching
  
• The only thing to remember is that the tweet must include the hashtag #parenthoodis.

2. NBC.com: Users can submit a :20 video, a photo or text in 10 words or less something that shows what “Parenthood is…”

So… What does parenthood mean to you?
