A friend on Facebook sent me a link to a writing contest that looks interesting. Called Young Writers for Adoption, the competition is open to youths who are adopted and/or their siblings. 

The contest is broken down into age categories and involves cash prizes:

Four age divisions:

Cash awards for winners in each age division:

1st place =$500
2nd place=$300
3rd place= $150
4th place=$50

Entries can be prose or poetry; submissions may be up to 500 words. The deadline is June 1, 2012. There is no fee to enter.

Good luck!
