The Miss America Organization is a scholarship program and competition that women ages 17-25 can participate in. What was formerly known as a “beauty pageant” has taken a new direction that promotes competition based on talents and interview skills. The Miss America Organization promotes my abilities to showcase my invisible illness journey.
I’m pleased to announce that in 2019, I will be running for a title through the Miss America Organization. One of the exciting opportunities this organization offers is the chance to raise funds for local children’s hospitals through Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals. My mission through the competition is to raise awareness about the impact of Invisible Illnesses. My own diagnosis and journey living with a rare Autoimmune Disorder makes this that more special and I could use your help!
The money I raise will help save children’s lives, and a portion will also go to support the Miss America Scholarship Fund. I want to give the perspective and empowerment to other patients like myself through the Miss America Organization, to remind them that they can do anything. Please join me on my journey from Patient to Pageant!
Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals makes sure that donated funds stay local which means that your donation helps kids and families right here in our community. I invite you to join me in touching the lives of sick and injured children today, by clicking the “Donate Now” button to make a secure donation. You can also see the impact of your donation by clicking here to view some of the incredible miracle stories from kids we’ve helped. These are just a few stories out of millions of kids treated at Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals each year.
Thank you so much for your support and for helping me make miracles happen! Together we can!
