Teen destination site Bolt.com teamed up with pen maker Paper Mate in a promotion to provide
one lucky teenager with a free college education in the “Write to Learn”
Contest.

The contest gives the 4.7 million users viewing pages on Bolt.com the chance
to submit an essay that answers “What Does a College Education Mean to Me or
Someone I Know?” Contestants must write their entry the old-fashioned way,
with pen and paper.

The winner will take away $80,000 for payment of college expenses.

Bolt claims 100 million page views a month and over one million registered
users.
