Grandparents.com wants to celebrate Today's Extraordinary Grandparents!
We are looking for active, involved and vibrant individuals who are 
redefining what it means to be grandparents — by contributing extraordinary 
things to their grandchildren's lives or by making an impact on the world 
around them.

Nominate someone (or yourself!) who is an extraordinary grandparent. Submit 
your nominee to www.grandparents.com by August 15th  — our expert panel will 
narrow down the field and select five extraordinary grandparents who will be 
announced on September 13th — Grandparents Day. Five lucky grandparents will 
receive a $500 donation to the school of their choice!
