Makenzie Melton now has a $15,000 college scholarship, a netbook computer and a $25,000 technology grant for a new computer lab at her school.
Melton’s doodle, titled “Rainforest Habitat," will appear on the Google homepage Thursday.
The doodle, which expresses Melton’s “concern that the rainforest is in danger,” was chosen over more than 33,000 submissions by students - ranging from kindergarten to twelfth grade, according to a post on the Official Google Blog.
Melton and the rest of the applicants were asked to develop a doodle for the site’s home page based on the theme, “If I could do anything, I would…” And a panel of “well-known illustrators, cartoonists and animators” helped choose the winning doodle, according to the blog.
