Corona: (Everyday life-) Heroes

You are sitting at home due to the Corona-crisis?  You wouldn’t mind a little challenge to keep your brain cells active and to practice your German skills? On top of that, you’d love to not just win a price but to even help* those in need at the same time?
 
For the last couple of weeks, many people have been staying at home, but many are out there and these people do their share by continuing with their work, by helping elderly, poor people, or generally people who are somehow in need. You might know such a person who has become an “Alltagsheld” (everyday life hero) in this current situation and this is your chance to write about such people! So do take part in this writing competition in German!
 
This is what you need to know about the competition:
