The competition was created to empower and inspire today's students to lead our world to a better future. The theme of this year's competition was The Power of Hope. Students in grades 9-12 from Oakland and Macomb County were invited to write about their reflection on the lessons of the Holocaust and to create a written or artistic response to the following quotation from Anne Frank's diary:
"Where there's hope, there's life. It fills us with fresh courage and make us strong again."
June 6, 1944
