Pages for Purpose
Our Mission
The Pages for Purpose Contest was created with the goal of giving young writers a place where their creativity can shine! With our short-story creative writing competition, experienced writers will judge the submissions and select multiple stand-out stories, giving awards for many different accomplishments. We provide an engaging platform where young writers can showcase their work. The top awarded submissions will have their work published through our website, as well as through TAPinto's organization, our sponsor.
