The annual Miss Achievement Newfoundland and Labrador Leadership Program has officially been cancelled.

Miss Achievement 2019-2020 Kathleen Murphy will hold her title for an additional year.

The not-for-profit organization has been in operation for 15 years and has awarded $150,000 in scholarships for leadership and volunteer work.

The organization says they will continue to be present in the community even during the pandemic. They will alter their events and community participation to fit public health guidelines.
