National student writing contest returns to raise funds for Habitat for Humanity Sault Ste. Marie & Area
Since 2007, students in Grades 4, 5 and 6 have shared what home means to them in a national writing contest that is now open and accepting entries.
Every student in Algoma who enters the contest will help Habitat for Humanity Sault Ste. Marie & Area build safe and affordable homes because every entry earns a $10 donation towards their local Habitat for Humanity. Three grand prize winners will each receive a $30,000 grant to help a local Habitat for Humanity build a place to call home for a family in need of affordable housing. In addition, nine runners-up will receive a $10,000 grant for their local Habitat for Humanity.
“This is such a meaningful way for students throughout the Algoma District to support their community – perhaps even their classmates or friends – by reflecting on the importance of home in their own lives,” says Chelsey Foucher, fundraising and marketing coordinator at Habitat for Humanity Sault Ste. Marie & Area in a news release. “Every entry is free and generates $10 to help kids just like them build brighter futures through our program.
