UNM Miss Florida & Crown Cares!
Donation protected
Hi friends!
I am currently serving the great Sunshine State as USA National Miss Florida 2016! What an amazing experience and opportunity I have been blessed to have! For those I may not know so well, I am also currently attending Law School at Florida State University College of Law in Tallahassee, Florida. I moved to Tallahassee from North Carolina after graduating from the one and only NC State University - Go Wolfpack! - and have fallen in love with the Sunshine State.
I had the enormous pleasure to serve as Miss Tallahassee NWFL 2015 last year, and through that experience I met so many wonderful people in the North Florida community, and really found a second home away from home here in the city full of canopy-lined roads and a mix of South Georgia-North Florida culture. My goal as USA National Miss Florida this year is to spread my love and appreciation for this state to all communities all across the state, as well as advocate for my platform: Education all around, Mentorship on the Ground, and my partnership with United Way of Florida .
In addition to my partnership with United Way of Florida, advocating for education, healthcare, financial stability, and crisis readiness, all state delegates of the USA National Miss Scholarship Organization support the non-profit anti-bullying organization, The Crown C.A.R.E.S. (Creating a Respectful Environment in Schools). We are charged with raising awareness about bullying in schools, as well as fundraising throughout our reign.
As you may know or imagine, making appearances and financing travel, wardrobe, ad pages, and other costs associated with competing at a national level can easily add up. In addition to my coursework throughout the year, I am also managing two part-time jobs and supporting myself away from my parents in North and South Carolina. Therefore, I am asking for financial support to alleviate some of the financial costs for nationals. For every donation received - even if it is a dollar - I will give 50% to The Crown C.A.R.E.S. as part of my responsibilities in fundraising for our national platform! Your funds will help support The Crown C.A.R.E.S., travel costs, wardrobe costs, ad fees, appearance associated costs, and so much more!
Your support is invaluable and I am truly appreciative for all that my family, friends, peers, and even those I have not had the pleasure of meeting in person have done for me! I hope that I am able to be the role model I would like to see for young girls as well as represent the Sunshine State well. I hope that you are able to support me with a smile, a hug, a dollar, ten dollars, or whatever you are able to give! #TeamFlorida #MissFlorida #crowncares #liveunited
With love and peace,
