About the Mobile Phone Case Design Contest
The Mobile Phone Case Design Contest encouraged teen members to design a phone case inspired by “A World Within Reach.” The designs illustrate the power of digital access and connectivity in unlocking opportunities for education, creativity, and innovation. The contest marks the 20th anniversary of Cox Innovation labs, located in Boys & Girls Clubs nationwide.
On March 25, Cox Mobile and Boys & Girls Club announced Gracie A. of Louisiana as the grand prize winner. She received a $25,000 scholarship and OtterBox will manufacture her design. The phone case will be sold online and in Cox retail stores. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to Boys & Girls Clubs of America.
