My name is Claire Laughard. My goal is to get to the Miss Arkansas Teen pageant in 2026. In order to get there, I have to win a prelinary pageant. While competing for these prelims I also raise funds for Miss America Scholarship Foundation. If you donate on this link, you will help me fullfill my obligation for raising money for scholarships.
My Community Service Initiative is called R.E.A.L.--Radiate Every Aspect of Life. I chose this as my CSI because I want to continue my Aunt Paula's legacy. She wanted everyone woman to feel worthy, the know their worth. She made sure to compliment people and spread love. She instilled in me that I am enough just the way I am. I should not have to change anything about my looks in order to be worthy.
My hope is to leave a little sparkle everywhere I go!
