Starting in 2007, the Miss America Organization has teamed up with Children's Miracle Network, a non-profit organization dedicated to saving and improving the lives of children by raising funds for children's hospitals. The new partnership will provide opportunism for the Miss America Organization to not only raise funds and awareness for the 17 million chilren treated each year at the 170 Children's Miracle Network hospitals, but also for the Miss America Scholarship Program, the world's largest provider of scholarship assistance for young women, providing more than $45 million in cash and tuition scholarship assistance each year.
Each year the new Miss America, in addition to bringing awareness to her personal platform, will be an official goodwill ambassador for Children's Miracle Network as she raises funds and awareness for both Children's Miracle Network and the Miss America Organization. This partnership also extends to the contestants at the local, state and national levels of the pageant, asking each contestant who participates to be responsible for raising funds on behalf of the Chilren's Miracle Network and the Miss America Organization.
As I'm getting ready to compete for the title of Miss Pennsylvania, and potentially even Miss America, I need your help to raise money for Children's Miracle Network and the Miss America Scholarship Fund. Please help me reach my goal of $1,000.00 by clicking on the link below.
Your donation will be considered a charitable donation for tax purposes and a receipt will be provided at the end of the year. To help even further, you can pass this information on to other friends and family to assist me in my fund raising efforts.
Thank you for your support and allowing "Miracles" to happen everyday!
