Proofread your entry before
submission. Or better yet, have someone you trust proofread it for you.
It is often difficult for a writer to see his or her own typographical
errors. Parents, teachers, mentors, and friends are permitted to proofread
submissions as long as the essay itself is the work of the author alone.
We look forward to reading
all submissions.

Essay Contest is sponsored by an anonymous donor.
