Reilani Perez was awarded a gift card for $1,500 from the Exchange as part of their 'You Made the Grade' rewards program.
Military children in grades 1 through 12, from across the globe, could enter their name into the drawing, if they maintained a 'B' average or higher on their report card.
Reilani and her family arrived at Fort Riley in early July and recently learned she'd been selected as the second prize winner.
The Perez family recently PCS'd to Fort Riley, where Reilani's dad, Chief Warrant Officer 3, Aladino Perez has been stationed, they moved here from U.S. Army Garrison Humphreys.
Reilani says she will share part of her winnings with her family who have supported her and her education. She also plans to buy something for herself, but has yet to decide what that is.
Reilani was one of more than 850 kids, across the world, who qualified to be in the drawing.
