“As a soon-to-be mom of two, I know how important it is to nourish and celebrate the potential of children,” said Hilary Duff. “It’s truly amazing what kids’ imaginations can uncover when we give them the confidence and resources they need to pursue their dreams, both big and small. I am so lucky to be a part of this contest because I’m truly amazed by what this program accomplished in its first year, and can’t wait to see the bright ideas from children across the country again this year.”

Starting today through October 1, 2018, families will be able to submit their entrepreneurial ideas to help make the world a better place on jif.com/imagine-if. The finalist ideas will be selected in October based on creativity, originality, project feasibility, and alignment with the Jif brand’s mission to empower parents and kids to make the world a better place and nourish the potential that lives within us all (see Official Rules for complete details). The public can vote on their favorite ideas from October 16 – 29 before a grand prize winner will be announced in November to receive $15,000 from Jif to help turn their idea into reality.

“Boys & Girls Clubs offer a place for young people to become who they were meant to be, with opportunities and experiences that can shape a lifetime of success,” said Jim Clark, president and CEO of Boys & Girls Clubs of America. “The ‘Imagine If, With Jif‘ contest aligns perfectly with our mission, by encouraging children to be creative and impactful. We are excited to continue fueling the potential of the next generation by giving them the opportunity to make their dreams reality.”

In its first year, the ‘Imagine If, With Jif‘ contest named eight-year-old Charlotte Gould as the grand prize winner. Charlotte’s nonprofit, “Stitches by Charlotte” creates personalized dolls for children undergoing medical procedures, and proves that great things happen when we support kids’ creative ideas. This young entrepreneur continues to pursue her dreams of making the world a better place, as she recently announced a brand-new line of surgery companion dolls.

But there’s still luck. The Tinder world has recently expanded and added a few familiar faces, so slow down next time you sit down for Starbucks and a Tinder session because who knows? Maybe you and Hilary Duff will match, or a possible match with Colin Farrell will lead to a conversation worthy enough to be shared on the TinderNightmares Instagram. We can only hope.

The reality is that this app has caught the attention of many, probably yourself included and there’s no shame in it! So you can stop pretending that you’re texting right now, while you’re actually deleting the app. It’s fine, we understand the attraction and we are not here to judge. Especially now that the Tinder pool supposedly includes Charlie Hunnam, Niall Horan, Lindsay Lohan and Lily Allen also seems to enjoy a good bit of Tindering. Whatever their intentions are when downloading the app that has an estimated 50 million visitors a month, the fact remains… They are somewhere on there and so are you. According to the New York Times, though many dating sites such as Match.com and eHarmony have done well, no one has had quite the success that Tinder has encountered. The truth is that studies have now proven that the app’s triumph is very much due to its simplicity and because it is based solely on looks and very little on actual personal information.

Though this seems to be a shallow way of finding people to talk to, or hang out with, or whatever you intend on doing with the people you match up with, shallow is not the appropriate word to be used. Tinder actually allows for users to focus on the subtle hints that each picture includes.

Further studies have also shown that though you may think the hunky guys with multiple shirtless pictures would be swiped right over the lovable, sensitive looking guy, you’d be wrong. Many women were surveyed and more people are team #dadbod than you’d think. The moral of the story here is there is no shame in wanting to connect or have a fun discussion on Tinder, maybe even a celeb. Just remember pepper spray and to have a small, inconspicuous shanking knife on you if you happen to meet up with your Tinder pal… You know…. Just in case.

Happy Tindering!
