SUMMARY:N - National Student Writing Contest asks: "What does a home mean to you?"
DESCRIPTION:Students in Grades 4\, 5 and 6 are asked to share what home means to them in a national writing contest that is now open and accepting entries. 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. \nEvery student who enters the Meaning of Home contest earns a $10 donation towards their local Habitat for Humanity. In addition to the grand prize winners\, nine runners up will receive a $10\,000 grant for their local Habitat build. \nFounded by SagenTM in 2007\, the Meaning of Home contest has raised over $1.7 million to help build decent and affordable housing in communities across Canada. Over 80\,000 students have shared the importance of home in poems and short essays. Last year a record-breaking 12\,000 entries were received. \n“Home has been a refuge for so many over this difficult time. Home begins with four walls\, but it doesn’t end there. It means so much more – more time with family and a safe and healthy place to study\, to grow and to build community\,” says Julia Deans\, President and CEO of Habitat for Humanity Canada. \n“This contest is a valuable learning tool for students to reflect on what home means to them and their family\,” says Stuart Levings\, President and CEO\, Sagen. “As a founding sponsor of this contest\, we are proud that the Meaning of Home contest has encouraged over 80\,000 students to become more active and compassionate citizens.” \nSubmissions are being accepted by mail or online at meaningofhome.ca until February 18\, 2022. Winners will be announced by June. \nSubmissions: \nTitle: Up to 50 characters \nText: 50 – 300 words \n  \nFor more information please contact: \nSarah Austin\nDirector\, Communications\nHabitat for Humanity Canada\nEmail: saustin@habitat.ca\nPhone: 437-241-6974 \n1 Sagen™ is a trademark owned by Sagen MI Canada Inc. \n\nCBJ Newsmakers
