Procter & Gamble (P&G) has launched an islandwide initiative, the ‘‘Anthem for Mothers .’’

The ‘‘Anthem for Mothers ’’ campaign calls in fans to send in entries to the dedicated facebook page - www.facebook/PGLanka before the 27th April. Fans are requested to write a song or sing a cover version of an existing song in any language that is an anthem for their mother, record a minute from their anthem and then upload it onto the P&G facebook page and ask their family and friends to vote for their song.

Based on the most original lyrics and voice, the three judges in a live judging panel will select a song and an artist each to move onto the next stage and to mentor with the aim of finding the best anthem for Sri Lankan mothers. The three shortlisted artists will debut the final anthem on ‘Mother Day’, May 12th commemorating all mothers. Voting will commence on the 22nd of May.

The grand prize winner is to be awarded Rs. 100, 000/= in cash (plus additional prizes) and a Rs. 100, 000/= studio contract with individual mentoring by a well-known local recording company.
