(BLACK PR WIRE) – Klassy Club, a leading mentoring group for girls, is hosting a “Leading the Dream – Sweet 16” contest. A young woman or several young women will be selected from either Miami-Dade and Broward counties and be the recipient of the stellar prizes, which includes an all-expense paid Sweet 16 Party and Celebration, worth a total value of $15,000.

“We want to help young girls and their families have the Sweet 16 party of a lifetime,” says Richelle Williams, founder of Klassy Club and executive producer of the event. “Nominations are currently being accepted through April 25th, so hurry while there is still time.”

Their “Leading the Dream” contest is open to girls turning 16 during 2014, who are legal residents of Miami-Dade or Broward counties and have not already had a Sweet 16 birthday celebration. The winner(s) will be young ladies who pride themselves on being positive examples in their homes and communities through education, positivity and good deeds. Nominations may come from friends and relatives or from the girls themselves.
