Bring Home Happiness this Season with #ArcticHome and Coca-Cola {$50 Walmart Gift Card and Prize Pack Giveaway}

Coca-Cola Arctic Home logo{This giveaway is now closed. Congratulations, Angela Cisco!}

When it comes to amazing creatures, I've always thought the polar bears ranked right up there with the best of them. There is something about their intelligent eyes and their white fur and the way that they can glide through the water so beautifully. Who doesn't love these gorgeous animals?

Being so large and strong out in the wild, it's often hard to remember that the polar bears aren't invincible. As they spend their lives on the Arctic sea ice hunting, living and breeding, the loss of habitat is now the polar bear's greatest threat. With the sea ice melting at an unprecedented rate, what is going to happen to those that call it home?

Fortunately, this holiday season Coca-Cola and the World Wildlife Fund have teamed up to raise awareness and funds to protect the polar bear's habitat with the Artic Home campaign.

polar bearThe goal of Coca-Cola Artic Home is simple and admirable: in partnership with World Wildlife Fund, they have set out to raise awareness and funds to help create a safe haven for the polar bear — an Arctic refuge.

Visiting the site will leave you in awe from the photos (I've watched the introduction multiple times already) and give you the opportunity to find out more about their mission as well as donate to the cause yourself. From learning about the arctic efforts being made to the field work of the research team to being able to virtually explore and track actual polar bears yourself, it's hard to not be drawn in and left admiring this huge undertaking.

Coca-Cola Arctic Home
Exploring the terrain in real time - for every dollar you donate, you may select one virtual parcel of Arctic Home that you can use as a base for exploring and tracking real polar bears

So how can we get involved? Coca-Cola has made an initial $2 million donation to World Wildlife Fund and now they want to help bring happiness to our homes as well. By teaming up with Walmart, Coca-Cola has introduced exclusive 28 packs of Coke that are being sold exclusively from this merchandiser only.

After purchasing a 28 pack, visit ArcticHome.com/Walmart and enter the code found on the packaging to donate to the cause (by text or online) and you will earn 70 My Coke Rewards points and receive a free virtual parcel on Arctic Home. Even better, Coke will match donations made by March 15, 2012 up to another $1 million!

For a little more fun, be sure to take part in the hourly instant win game at ArcticHome.com/Walmart for a $100 Walmart gift card (through December 31, 2011). Who doesn't want that? You must be a My Coke Rewards member to participate (as well as a legal resident of the U.S. or DC and 13+ years of age), but membership is free, of course. Details and full rules can be found right on the site.

This holiday season, be sure to include a 28 pack of Coke and an entry (or two) to instantly win a Walmart gift card to put towards adding happiness to your home. Remember, these special packs are exclusively in Walmart stores, but if you can't find them in your area, don't fret. Walmart will also be featuring Coca-Cola Arctic Home Holiday Orb Bottles for $1 that will earn your virtual Arctic Home parcel and an entry into the $100 Walmart gift card instant win game as well.

Plus, c'mon. They're just so cute!

Coke orb bottlesThanks to the generosity of Coca-Cola, one person will be ready to have a little extra joy in their lives this holiday season as well, because...

One lucky person will win a "Bring Home Happiness" Holiday Prize Pack* (ARV $115)!

*Prize pack will include (1) $50 Walmart gift card for all of your holiday needs, (3) Coca-Cola Polar bear ornaments to help raise awareness for Arctic Home cause, (1) 4-set of collectible Arctic glasses, (1) polar bear winter hat
