Rachel and Kelsi Okun, sisters from McLean, Virginia, created ThanksUSA, a nationwide treasure hunt aimed at benefiting military families. Their motivation was to express gratitude to the troops. Participants can win prizes including a Harley-Davidson motorcycle, a big-screen home theater system, and trips to exciting destinations like the Super Bowl, Daytona 500, London, and Cairo. All these prizes were donated by generous sponsors.
The virtual treasure hunt consists of 12 "chapters," available online in a clue book format. Each chapter challenges participants with questions about American history, popular culture, and trivia related to various states. Correct answers make participants eligible for prizes.
Those who successfully complete all 12 chapters qualify for a chance to win a grand prize package worth $100,000. This includes a Washington, D.C., adventure to find a treasure chest filled with jewelry, rare gems, and ancient coins.
ThanksUSA, which stands for "Treasure Hunt Aiding Needs of Kids (and Spouses) of those Serving the United States of America," is open to all U.S. citizens until September 5. While participation is free, donations for the scholarships are highly encouraged.
"The least we can do for these American heroes is to support their families’ futures," writes 10-year-old Rachel in an essay about the project's inception.
Inspired by the book "A Treasure's Trove" by Michael Stadther, Rachel and Kelsi designed the ThanksUSA logo and researched questions with help from their parents, a teacher, and other volunteers.
"We wanted to say thank you to our troops and show that we care," adds 8-year-old Kelsi.
Join the hunt, win amazing prizes, and make a difference for military families today!
