A real contest would take a lot of work and money
An impressive contest would take the affiliations of several groups like The Moon Society, as well as several university groups. Serious groups will need corporate sponsors. Real prize money would have to come from a deep-pockets high-tech billionaire. NASA could do a educational outreach thing, but there is no money to be had there.
Such things can happen. We already have $20.00 promised.
