Canon launched a cool national awareness campaign in Australia and New Zealand today and we wanted to let you know about it.

The campaign urges Australians and New Zealanders to get creative for the causes they are passionate about. By doing so they have the chance to win AUD $60,000 and NZD $25,000 to support an Australian and New Zealand cause of their choice, hence its name – Creative for a Cause!

Through Creative for a Cause and the power of creative imagery, Canon hopes to make a difference to the many important charities and not-for-profit organisations in Australia and New Zealand.

To get involved all you need to do is take a photograph that reflects a cause you are passionate about and upload it, along with a 25 word description of what your photo represents and who your selected charity or not-for-profit organisation is.

In addition to the cash donation, Canon will reward the winning entries and finalists with a Canon product prize pack.

You can upload and vote on your favourite images from now until Friday 10 July.
