• Entries are being accepted through March 22 for the 13th annual Listen to a Life Essay
  Contest run by the Legacy Project, a big-picture
  learning project for all ages, and the nonprofit Generations
  United.

The contest, open to young people ages 8 to 18, encourages connections
across generations. To enter, a young person interviews a grandparent or grandfriend
50 years or older, gathering information about the older person’s hopes and goals
through their life; how he or she achieved goals and overcame obstacles; or key life
experiences. The young person then writes and submit a 300-word essay based on the
interview.

The winner will receive a Lenov ThinkCentre computer. Click
