Daughters of Formosa Awards honor Taiwan teenagers

Are math and science for girls? How about physical sports? Can girls be brave and courageous? Can young people make a difference in the world? The Daughters of Formosa Awards prove that the answer to all these questions is "Yes!"

The 2006 Daughters of Formosa Awards have been announced and the winners from the island-wide competition have been honored as finalists in this year's awards. The Garden of Hope Foundation started the awards in order to encourage girls and celebrate their achievements — especially in non-traditional fields. The awards are open to all girls in Taiwan between the ages of 12-18.

Prizes are awarded in the areas of "Science and Technology," "Courage and Adventure," "Public Service," "Physical Sports," and "Arts and Creativity." The winners, who were named at the award ceremony earlier in August, will take part in the "Girls Working Day" and also win a place on an overseas study tour.

Congratulations to all the 2006 finalists!
