The Women of Worth held a Prince & Princess Contest for children ages 5 and under. It’s similar to last year’s Baby Contest, except this year, the boy and girl that raised the most money were crowned Prince & Princess. Both were announced during our Black History Service on February 22nd and crowned the following week. Also, our “Popular Vote” poll has returned this year.
