About this challenge
This Challenge is dedicated to all the strong women in our lives. To all the ladies who have given us life, kept us inspired, and motivate us to rise above every single day, we want to recognize and thank you.
As we continue to celebrate International Women's Month, let's uplift powerful women and their stories. Join the Sister Circle Challenge by composing an open letter addressed to the strongest woman you know. Whether your letter is a heart-to-heart to your mom, a token of appreciation to someone you don't know personally, or a letter of encouragement to your badass best friend, let them know how much they've impacted your life. We encourage you to include images, videos, and other keepsakes that bond you and the special leading lady in your life. But most importantly, remind her of how much of a boss she truly is!

From across the room (or rather, the screen), the Vocal Team fell head over heels in love with nearly 3,500 poems submitted to the Vocal+ “From Across The Room" Challenge. Inspired by the idea of love at first sight, the Vocal creative community once again delivered with heart and soul. After a month and a half of reading love poems, and with final judging by Kirun Kapur, esteemed editor of the Beloit Poetry Journal and creative writing professor at Amherst College, we are thrilled to announce our winners.
