Acuity announced the winners of its “Kidsxplain Insurance” video contest. The contest invited children ages 5-19 to explain in their own way what insurance is and why people need it.
“Insurance is a topic most kids probably don’t think about,” said Acuity President and CEO Ben Salzmann. “We wanted to provide the opportunity for children to tell us what they thought about insurance and to have fun doing it.”
Submitted videos were up to a minute in length and could address any question related to auto or home insurance. Prizes included $250 for first-place winners, $100 for second-place winners, and $25 for judges’ choice awards. Winners were selected in three age categories:
