National Writing Contest
For Grades 4, 5 And 6
January 6 to February 21, 2020
Grades 4, 5 and 6 students across Canada are invited to submit a poem or essay explaining what home means to them. It’s a great way for students to engage in an interactive and fun way, and it teaches youth the importance of safe, affordable housing. Each entry results in a $10 donation to a local Habitat and the winner in each grade gets to direct a $30,000 grant to a local Habitat build.
Nine runners-up (3 per grade) will also get to direct a $10,000 grant towards a local Habitat build. Additional prizes include an iPad, and class pizza party for each of the grand prize winners.
If you know a kid in Grades 4 to 6 who loves to help others please tell them about the #MeaningOfHome contest. Teachers, especially are encouraged to sign up to be on the email list to learn more. http://ow.ly/TqM750xMKqx
