The Meaning of Home writing contest, which runs from January 3 to February 18, 2022, invites Grades 4, 5 and 6 students from across Canada to submit a written poem or essay (in English or French) explaining what home means to them for a chance to win a $30,000 grant for their local Habitat for Humanity. Since 2007, over 80,000 students have participated in the Meaning of Home contest, raising over $1.7 million to build homes across Canada for families in need of decent and affordable housing. For each submission, Habitat Heartland Ontario will receive a $10 donation to help provide local families with a safe, decent, and affordable place to live.
