April 1 is Census Day!

When you fill out your Census Form, you report on the people staying with your household on this date.

Baltimore City is also launching a #BmoreCensus Challenge social media contest on April 1. Our goal is to spread the word digitally as far as we can: the Census is here, and it is safe, easy and important to complete.

Contest Rules:

Enter our social media contest to share the importance of the Census. You will have a chance to win great prizes for the most likes, shares and re-tweets.

1. Post a Census 2020 themed picture or meme with the hashtag #bmorecensuschallenge
2. It is as easy as posting a picture with your census envelope, sharing information from this email, or sharing an existing meme -- or you can get creative and create your own.
3. Tag at least 3 friends. 
4. Tag us (@BaltPlan on IG and @BaltimorePlanning on Facebook).
5. There will be GREAT prizes for both English and non-English posts.
