Voters' choices win NCCC Kid's Club grand prize
TEN-year-old Archimedes Udaundo and eight-year-old Eunice Evan G. Dominguez won the judge's hearts and got the nod of NCCC Department Store shoppers, not only as the Voter's Choice, but also winning the two top spots of this year's Kids Club Model Search.
Archie and Nice each won P10,000 each in cash and gift certificates. Both kids also won in the Most Eloquent category. Archie wins Best in Photo, and his version of Josh Groban's Broken Vow named him Best in Talent, while Nice bested other female finalists to win the Best in Costume category.
First runner-up prize went to Benedict Zapanta and Angelica Almaden, who was judged Best in Talent for her belly dancing number.
Both won P7,500 in cash and gift certificates. Second runner-up prizes of P5,000 in cash and gift certificates went to James Oliver Labor and Gabrielle Coleen Sombilon.
Special awards were also given out to Aethan Lance Aballe, Best in Costume; Irjana Xyza Arcena, Best in Photo; and for Mr. and Ms. City Foods, Rejun Pang and Erika Pangilan.
All special award winners received P1,000 of gift certificates from NCCC Department Store, with plaques, sashes and gift packs.
This year's other finalists who were screened on April 23 from over 86 applications from Davao and Tagum City, were Joie Marie Alexie Cena, Pauline Escueta, Alianna Mae Amilasan, Jenyfaith Sahisahid, Carl Heaven Cañete, Joej Vicent Deonne Nisnisan, Humprey Comanda, John Edward Labot, Justine Louise Carcedo and Karldave Zhann Darjani.
The kid's spent the remaining part of their summer vacation busying themselves with personality development, dancing, modeling and singing workshops, a tree planting activity at Daliaon, Toril and visits to charity organizations for children.
