Have a son or daughter in grades 9 through 12? This post is for YOU.

President Gerald R. Ford was a Distinguished Eagle Scout who deeply valued integrity and public service. To honor that legacy, his foundation's annual writing challenge asks students - including Scouts - to respond to a thought-provoking prompt in 500-750 words.

The top prize includes more than recognition - $2,500 will be awarded.

The deadline for youth to submit drafts is quickly approaching (March 13, 2026, 5 PM EDT).

Students - and parents - can find details and the prompt on the official website: https://ow.ly/VJke50Ys7Or.

For essay tips for Scouts, see this recent blog post: https://ow.ly/w7mM50Ys7Ou.
