Congratulations to our 2024 WINNER, Sarah Eunice Santos!
The Kids Expo and the Jewelry contest gave an opportunity to showcase the youth in our communities and foster their creativity. 25 entries were submitted this first year and each participant was asked to write a story about their design.
Sarah shared, “”My family is my home where I get the care and love that I need. My picture shows my dad, mom and me. They are holding and embracing me. My family keeps me safe from danger and protects me at all times. I want to wear this jewelry every day as a remembrance of my family!”
The CASA Kids Expo committee was completely blown away by the creativity of the drawings and the stories behind them. We have some very talented young people in our midst! It was a tough decision, but the committee chose to honor Sarah as the top winner. Sarah is a 10 year old student at Huntsville Intermediate.
The design will be crafted by Elliott into a beautiful necklace valued at approximately $2500. Sarah is planning to give to her mother for Mother’s Day but admits she will wear it too!
In addition to awarding the special prize to the winner, every participant was given a special treat from Elliott’s Jewelers….a bracelet and a coupon for a free 1/2 gallon of Blue Bell Ice Cream!
The contest will be back next year at the All About Kids Expo slated for Saturday, April 26, 2025. All students ages 5-12 are invited and encourage to participate. Kids get your ideas ready!
