The 14th annual “Living with Asthma” poster contest, co-sponsored by the AAAAI and the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), is open to children in grades 1 through 8 who have asthma.

If you're one of the more than 5 million children who have asthma, you know the wheezing, coughing, shortness of breath and other symptoms can keep you from activities you enjoy. But by taking your medicine and following an asthma action plan, you can keep these symptoms under control.

Individual Entry Prizes

First, second and third place prizes will be awarded in 3 categories for individual poster entries:

  • 1st and 2nd grade
  • 3rd through 5th grade
  • 6th through 8th grade

First prize -- $500 U.S. savings bond and a $250 gift certificate*
Second prize -- $250 U.S. savings bond and a $100 gift certificate*
Third prize -- $100 U.S. savings bond and a $50 gift certificate*

*Contest winners will be able to choose a gift certificate from one of four national retailers: Toys R Us, Barnes and Noble, Target, or fogdog.com (a sports equipment Web site).

Each winner's school will receive a free supply of asthma education materials, too!
