Summer Youth Writing Challenge

Introducing our first ever Summer Youth Writing Challenge!

​

A writing contest for students in Grades 1-12 to share their ideas and creativity with the world!

​

Here at The Salvation Army, we believe that all children and youth have a voice, and ideas to share. This contest was created to help motivate and inspire children and youth in our community to step out of their comfort zone, develop new creative ideas, and put them into amazing literary works.​​​​​​

Congratulations to the 2024 contest Winners!
