Hi friends,
Last year, I was incredibly grateful to surpass my fundraising goal, and this year, I’m challenging myself to make an even greater impact!
Through the Miss America Opportunity, each candidate raises funds that support the American Heart Association, the Miss America Scholarship Foundation, and state scholarship organizations like the Miss Missouri Scholarship Organization. These funds help advance two causes that mean so much to me: creating educational opportunities for women and supporting lifesaving efforts in the fight against heart disease.
Heart disease remains the No. 1 killer of women, making the American Heart Association’s work in research, education, prevention, and advocacy especially important. At the same time, the Miss America Scholarship Foundation and its state organizations provide scholarship opportunities that empower young women to pursue their education, careers, and dreams.
As I begin another journey toward Miss Missouri, my goal is not simply to meet the fundraising requirement, I want to surpass what I raised last year and make an even bigger difference.
Every donation, no matter the amount, contributes to something much larger than my own journey. Thank you for investing in women's health, women's education, and the organizations that continue creating opportunities for women across the country.
I am so grateful to have you alongside me for another year. Let’s surpass last year’s impact together! ❤️
