I've never seen the show, but she's running a contest in her magazine, looking for ideas for her show. The top 5 winners get $5,000 to incorporate their idea into reality. What would you choose, and why? (PS - It can't be something that's already being done by another agency).

Come on now. There must be more people out there with some good ideas? Where are you all hiding?

I would start by going around to some local charities and talking to the directors about any needs they have. With all that information I would sit down and try to be very creative about meeting these needs. Alot would depend on the needs and charities that I went to as to what I would do.
