We sponsor this annual writing scholarship for Oregon high school juniors and seniors in order to encourage Oregon’s youth to consider their leadership role in promoting a more healthy, just, and peaceful world.

The 2018 question is:

"What would it take to eliminate nuclear weapons in your lifetime?"
