The Ford Foundation will donate $5 for each photo uploaded (up to $50,000) to the Smithsonian  and participants will have the chance to have their photographs featured in an exhibit on the National Mall in 2014 curated by staff from the National Museum of American History. Participants will also be eligible for a Smithsonian Journeys trip for two around the Florida peninsula in March 2014.

In accordance with the Smithsonian’s privacy policy, participants will be able to opt out of communications at any time.
