3...2…1… GO! The Dare to Share Digital Storytelling team is so excited to launch our 2nd Dare to Share storytelling challenge to the Georgian employee community! 

Dare to Share is a community building, employee connecting, generally fun initiative using the power of storytelling. 

For this challenge, we invite you to share your narratives (heartfelt, funny, suspenseful and interesting) surrounding your beloved pet(s) or the reasons you don’t have one!

 

For those who share their lives with furry, feathered, or scaly companions, you could tell stories like  

- the unique origins behind your pet's name, 

- the anecdotes that make your pet one-of-a-kind, 

- heartwarming adventures or quirky antics they have, or

- what you think your pets get up to when you’re not home!

If your home is a no-pet zone, and pets are not your thing, you could share

- your reason why no pet shall enter, 

- past pet experiences you may have had,

- how the right moment or pet hasn’t presented itself, or

- maybe how you’ve made non-pet connections to a favourite animal in a different way.

Whatever your pet or anti-pet story, we can’t wait to hear it! 

Your stories should be posted to the Flip app by 5 pm Wednesday, March 6th.  You’ll need to log into Flip using your Georgian email account. Click here to join the challenge. Or click below or use this QR code with your device. You'll still need to log in with your Georgian account.

For taking the time to share your story and connect with colleagues and community, you also have the opportunity to win $150 worth of gift cards to support local businesses! 

Two winners will be drawn:

  1. One for sharing your story
  2. One for commenting on the stories of peers 

Your name will be entered once into each draw (for sharing a story and for commenting). 

Join us in celebrating the diverse pet narratives that enrich our lives, whether they're tales of wagging tails or quiet companionship. Dare to share your story today and inspire others with the magic of pets—or the magical reasons you don’t have one.

Remember, we're all storytellers, and we dare you to share yours! 🐾📖
