McKinley Roth, center, holds her prize-winning T-shirt which brought a $1,000 donation to her school and a month of free burritos for McKinley. She is congratulated by Patricia Allen, left, her principal at St. Joseph School, Marietta, and Willy Bitter of Willy’s Mexicana Grill.

Congrats to McKinley Roth.

The student at St. Joseph School, Marietta, won a $1,000 donation to her school as her top prize in Willy’s Mexicana Grill T-shirt design contest.

Willy Bitter, founder of the restaurant, visited McKinley, 9, of Marietta, in her classroom at the school, with an oversized check in hand.

In the contest students aged 18 and younger were encouraged to design a T-shirt that depicted nature, beauty and the theme, “Let’s make a beautiful world together.”

The shirts with McKinley’s winning design, which also earned her a $250 prize and free burritos for a month, will be available to purchase at www.willys.com.
