JFK Library Foundation 2021 Profile In Courage Essay Contest

 

The 2021 Profile In Courage Essay Contest is now accepting submissions from high school students.  Acts of political courage have the power to teach lessons in leadership, service, and integrity. That’s why we are encouraging teachers and administrators like yourself to help students share these stories, with the chance to win money for college.

Winning essays should describe the stories of lesser-known leaders who served the years after 1917, the year of President Kennedy’s birth. They should also analyze an act of political courage through the support of credible sources. Visit our homepage for more details regarding requirements, details, and past winning essays. Deadline is January 15, 2021
