Winners of the 2014 RESPECT! Challenge Announced

Thank you to everyone who participated in the third annual RESPECT! Challenge! We received thousands of photos, videos, and stories from people across the nation telling us who they wanted to thank for teaching them about respect. Thank you for sharing stories about your favorite role models—from parents and teachers to siblings and mentors.

Choosing the winners was very difficult this year with so many great submissions! After much deliberation, we’re pleased to announce the national winner of the RESPECT! Challenge:

Drumroll please….

BriAna Hartfield from Miami, Florida! BriAna is the winner of $10,000, which she’s chosen to donate to the Dranoff 2 Piano Foundation. She’ll also receive a $500 shopping spree at Macy’s, as well as a VIP trip to New York City for the Macy’s 4th of July fireworks show!

Check out BriAna’s moving video below!
