Ugandan kids are being invited to help make the world a better place by imagining and designing the car of the future.
The 2024 Toyota Dream Car Art Contest to be held by CFAO Motors, encourages kids to grab their pencils, crayons, or paint brushes to put their innovative designs on paper.
Young dreamers aged 15 and under from across Uganda are invited to draw their dream cars, igniting their imaginations, and potentially seeing their vision on the world stage.
Over the past few years, Toyota’s Dream Car Art Contest has evolved from a colourful visual arts talent competition to a global platform for the world’s most imaginative kids to bring forward their world-changing ideas.
The contest is comprised of the National Contest and the World Contest. The National Contest will be held in each participating country. The submission deadline for the Uganda contest is 1st March 2024 and winners of the top three artworks from each category will be rewarded, crowned national champions, and entered as representatives of Uganda in the World Contest, to be held in Japan, where they will have the chance to compete against dreamers from around the globe. In each category, the World Contest winners will walk away with USD 5,000 for themselves and USD 10,000 for their school while the 1st and 2nd runners-up get USD 3,000 per winner.
“At CFAO Motors, we believe in the power of dreams; every great idea was born in the glimmer of a dream, and under the Toyota brand, we hope that this activity will help nurture the creativity of the next generation of great inventors, thinkers, and dreamers,” says Isaac Tegule,
Marketing Manager CFAO Motors. The Toyota Dream Car Art Contest is more than just a competition; it’s an opportunity to spark curiosity, ignite creativity, and empower the next generation to shape the future of mobility. We are excited to witness the incredible talent and imagination of Ugandan children and look forward to cheering them on as they share their dreams with the world”, he added.
