CINCINNATI, OH (FOX19) -

A sixth grader at Fairview German Language School has designed this year's Kids for the Cure t-shirt.

Thea, age 10, was one of thousands of contestants in the contest. Her design was one of three finalists chosen, and then voted as the winner.

Thea received the first ceremonial Kids of the Cure t-shirt on Monday. The t-shirt will be used during the annual Race for the Cure in Cincinnati on Sept. 29.

Her homeroom teacher, Mrs. Auel, is battling breast cancer.
