We are recruiting volunteers to support the efforts of local middle school students in an annual writing competition, Do The Write Thing. Open to all Asheville City and Buncombe County middle school students, this national competition, hosted by the U.S. Attorney’s Office, encourages students to examine the causes and impact of youth violence and to share their ideas to stop it.

Your Role

We are seeking volunteers to read, review and score each student’s written submission (essay, poem, short story, or song). This is an excellent opportunity to support and engage with students and make a positive impact in our community.

Volunteers are needed on March 29 & 30. For full details, and to volunteer, click the button below. Thank you for supporting our youth as they work to develop solutions that make a difference in our community.
