Haiku Scholarship
2023 Winners Announced!
With over 200 entries, it was difficult to select the winners... but we did!
About Our 2023 Haiku Scholarship
California Freethought Day believes that secular rights, science, and the First Amendment should be celebrated, and wants to support students as they further their education.
To further that goal, we launched a social media scholarship contest for high school and college students anywhere in the United States.
We awarded $100 to those who have written our favorite posts (as tweets, videos, photos, etc) that answer this question in the form of a haiku:
Why is science education so important?
