Congratulations to Melanie Noy Inthisanse, who was crowned Miss Lao Teen during the 2019 Lao Princess Pageant! Melanie has grown up in Summerset across the street from FIRM, and has been a longtime participant and volunteer in FIRM programs.
Melanie partnered with FIRM staff to help raise the money for her participation in the pageant, and FIRM staff supported Melanie in the competition, including attending the talent show where Melanie played the viola.
FIRM supported the Lao Princess Pageant as a sponsor and by providing space for the pageant practice. FIRM’s Program Manager, Lucky Siphongsay also served as one of the judges for the pageant. FIRM is so proud of Melanie and all of those that participated in the pageant!
