We featured her artwork when it won the national competition for the Lions Club “Dream of Peace” poster contest. Today we are proud to report that thirteen-year-old Amanda Nunez has been named as one of twenty-four finalists in the Lions International worldwide competition. She automatically receives an award of one thousand Belize dollars plus a shot at the grand prize of five thousand dollars and an all expense paid trip to the United Nations in New York for World Lions Day on March fourteenth. Over three hundred and twenty-five thousand children from one hundred and ninety countries participated in the contest. Nunez is a student at Belize Elementary.
