“Why,” you ask? Because these are the winners of Part 2 of our Power of 8 Contest! For the original contest, we asked our non-profits to choose from a list of “8″ words (celebrate, elevate, collaborate, appreciate, etc.) or to choose an “8″ word of their own; then they filmed a super-short video about how that word represented them.

We announced our original winners in mid-November and then invited you to choose the next set of winners by viewing and liking their videos on YouTube. So here on GoodWorks, we will be featuring the four “most viewed-and-liked” videos throughout the holidays.

We’re going to start, though, by re-featuring the original winner of the Power of 8 contest, the Literacy Council of Montgomery County! Check it out:
