2025 Writing Challenge - Buckeye Community Hope Foundation

2025 Writing Challenge

We are excited to launch the 10th Annual Buckeye Community Hope Foundation Writing Challenge! This year's theme is "Technology and You".

To encourage preparation for assessments and mastery of common core state standards in English Language Arts, BCHF is sponsoring its 10th annual student writing challenge. Challenges are offered for grades at the following levels: Grades 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12.

Schools may each submit one essay per grade to the Buckeye Hope Writing Challenge. School-level contests to determine each grade’s submission(s) are encouraged. BCHF will recognize individuals who demonstrate high achievement on this project by cash awards to the school, student trophies, and student participation ribbons.

The below packets will explain the guidelines for each level of the challenge. Additional questions may be sent to: Ms. Mindy Farry, BCHF Writing Challenge Coordinator, mfarry@buckeyehope.org.
