Creative Empowerment Arts Contest: They Are Not Too Young To Care!
This contest aims to inspire young people and underscore the role of awareness, education, and support for those affected by breast cancer.

In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Your Time For Creative Empowerment, Inc. is excited to announce the Creative Empowerment Arts Contest, inviting middle and high school students to channel their unique creative skills and express their heartfelt hopes and experiences related to breast cancer awareness and advocacy.
Students are encouraged to submit their creative expressions—be it through art, writing, or other mediums—by December 5, 2025. This initiative not only provides a platform for young voices but also fosters self-expression and personal growth throughout the creative process.
“While winners will benefit from college scholarships and custom Madona Cole Originals Dignity Headwear for a loved one navigating hair loss due to chemotherapy, the essence of this initiative lies in the journey of discovering and sharing their creative voices,” says Mrs. Cole-Lacy, Founder/CEO of Your Time For Creative Empowerment, Inc. “We believe that encouraging youth to articulate their feelings and insights about this important issue is a vital step in acknowkedging the impact of breast cancer on our youth within all communities.”
