“The vision and inspiration for this award was triggered by the historic and celebrated events, going back over two thousand years, such as those in Greece pertaining to sports, as well as more modern reincarnations, such as global beauty pageant, where the best athletes or the most qualified beauty contestants are chosen from various nations to compete for the best of the best in their respective categories. Now AWFA provides this same opportunity for the best films, actors, directors and other creative talents to be recognized and celebrated worldwide”
