Big Green Egg and Ace Hardware Join Forces to Celebrate Community Heroes
Big Green Egg and Ace Hardware are excited to announce their latest initiative aimed at recognizing everyday heroes who make communities a better place. The innovative contest, titled "Egg Your Neighbor," invites residents across the United States to nominate local champions who go above and beyond in serving their neighborhoods. The contest, which is now live, aims to shine a light on those unsung heroes who demonstrate kindness, support, and community spirit.
A Unique Concept to Appreciate Neighbors
The idea behind the “Egg Your Neighbor” contest is surprisingly charming; it allows people to honor those who make significant contributions to their community, be it a neighbor who regularly helps clear snow from the sidewalks, a teacher dedicated to inspiring students, or a coach who motivates young athletes. This initiative offers a fun twist on traditional recognition. As Michele Morris, Head of Marketing for Big Green Egg, stated: "We believe strong communities start with good neighbors—and we're proud to help honor them."
Each nomination provides an opportunity to thank these local heroes substantially, as the contest winners will receive impressive prizes. The competition runs until August 1, 2025, and encourages participants to share their uplifting stories in written or video format.
Contest Details
The selected winners will receive not just recognition but also incredible prizes, including:
- - 25 Neighborhood Heroes: Each chosen hero will receive a Large Big Green Egg grill package along with exclusive merchandise, celebrating their contributions.
- - 5 Grand Prize Winners: In addition to the grill package, these winners will earn tickets to the highly anticipated EGGtoberfest, set to take place in Atlanta on October 4, 2025.
Nominations can be submitted through the official website at
www.EggYourNeighbor.com. The contest is open to residents aged 18 and older across all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Winners will be announced on or around September 2, 2025, making this a fantastic opportunity to not only appreciate those special individuals in our lives but also contribute to the spirit of community engagement.
