Celebrating the service of military veterans, WTXF FOX 29, in partnership with Moravia Health, is excited to announce an upcoming giveaway designed to honor those who have served their country.
The giveaway, which opens its doors for nominations on July 21, 2025, encourages legal residents of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware who are over 18 years old to nominate deserving veterans.
Entrants are invited to share brief essays (up to 200 words) highlighting why their nominee deserves the recognition and can significantly benefit from a $1,000 Visa gift card.
The contest aims to appreciate the immense contributions of military personnel and give back to those who have dedicated their lives to serving the nation.
To enter, participants must submit their nominations through www.fox29.com/contests by the deadline of December 1, 2025.
Only one submission is accepted per person, although a nominee can receive nominations from multiple entrants.
It is important to note that staff members of Fox Television Stations, LLC, and its affiliates are ineligible to enter, as well as their immediate family members.
Nominations must adhere to the content guidelines outlined by the sponsor, avoiding profanity or any content deemed disrespectful to any individual or group.
Entrants are required to hold the copyright to their submission materials, as all entries will become the property of WTXF FOX 29 for future promotional use.
The giveaway organizers are committed to ensuring a fair and respectful environment, emphasizing the importance of both creativity and caution in submissions.
During the nomination period, six nominees will be selected as potential winners by a panel of judges based on the content and quality of the essays.
The judges’ decision will be final, and they will evaluate the nominees to ensure the selection process is transparent and equitable.
After the selection, nominators will be contacted by phone or email regarding their nominated veteran’s status between July 21 and December 31, 2025.
Responding promptly to the notification is essential; nominators must confirm within three business days to facilitate a surprise visit during a regular FOX 29 News Segment.
Failure to timely respond or any inability to verify a nominee’s eligibility will result in disqualification and the selection of an alternate winner if time allows.
Winners must complete and return a Certification of Eligibility and Release form within seven days following the surprise recognition to officially claim their prize.
Each selected veteran will receive a $1,000 Visa gift card as a token of appreciation for their service.
The provided prizes are generously sponsored by Moravia Health, reflecting their commitment to supporting military veterans.
It is stipulated that winners cannot exchange their prizes for cash or substitute them for different items; transfers and assignments of the prize are also prohibited.
In certain situations, the sponsor reserves the right to substitute a prize of equal or higher value in case of unforeseen circumstances.
As part of the giveaway process, winners may be liable for any local, state, or federal taxes incurred as a result of the awarding of the prize.
The rules emphasize that each individual can only win one prize from the sponsor within a 30-day period, which helps ensure that multiple participants have a chance to benefit from future giveaways.
The chances of winning depend largely on the number of eligible nominations received and the subjective judgment of the judges overseeing the selection process.
Participants should also note that by entering, they grant permission for the usage of winners’ names, images, and likenesses for promotional purposes without any additional compensation.
The complete giveaway rules are accessible on the FOX 29 website and at its headquarters located in Philadelphia, ensuring transparency and accessibility for interested entrants.
For those curious about the past winners, a request can be made via a self-addressed, stamped envelope sent to the network’s address within one year of the giveaway’s conclusion.
This initiative aligns with FOX 29’s commitment to community engagement and support for local heroes, enriching the lives of deserving veterans while fostering community spirit.
As the promotion continues to unfold, the focus remains on recognizing the invaluable contributions of veterans to society, ensuring they receive the honor they have earned through their service.
