Thank you to all of our program sponsors, partner schools, teachers, students and families who have participated in the Diverse Minds program over the years – the books and their messages of hope will live on in public libraries and schools across the country, as well as on our website. Since its inception in 2006, B’nai B’rith has published 41 original children’s books, some in two different languages (English and Spanish), awarded more than $337,000 in college scholarships and grants, and donated more than 45,000 books to public schools, libraries and community organizations across the country and created 55 authors/illustrators.Īs of 2019, we are not offering the Diverse Minds Writing Challenge in any contest regions. Diverse Minds encouraged teens to create innovative ways to teach tolerance to elementary-aged children, as well as encounter new insights into these issues for themselves. The contest winner in each contest city/region received a $5,000 college scholarship and became a published author. Executed through public, private and charter high schools in select communities. Our goal is to destroy prejudices and strengthen the future of our youth through creativity, inspiration and education.įor 12 years, this innovative scholarship competition asked high school students to write and illustrate a children’s book that told a story of tolerance, diversity or inclusion. The Diverse Minds Writing Challenge is an education and awareness initiative created by B’nai B’rith International as one of its programs to promote tolerance and communicate a message of equality among all citizens, regardless of race, religion, national origin, gender or sexual orientation.
