Hi everyone! Welcome to my campaign page for the Miss Earth USA "Beauties for a Cause" charitable giving challenge.
About me:
My name is Alexa Arzillo. I am honored to be your Miss Virginia Earth USA vying for the title of Miss Earth USA in December. I am a full-time student studying to be a radiologist. I am also a part time patient transporter at a level 3 trauma hospital, and a stylist.
The Miss Earth organization has been a big part of my life since the age of fourteen and am truly blessed to be part of this incredible organization, as it aligns with my personal values of making an impact in our environment and inspiring others to want to do the same. I have always advocated for environmental sustainability, and for the last six years have worked with organizations such as the Surfrider Foundation, Lynnhaven River Now and the Chesapeake Bay Organization to firsthand tackle environmental issues and concerns. Be it a beach or waterway cleanup, to educating our youth on the importance of protecting our environment, I believe in taking action and inspiring others to do the same.
Another passion of mine is to empower young girls to believe in themselves and to become the best versions of themselves. As a mentor for the National Princess for a Day Program, I have been able to collaborate with its founder, Coressa Williams to help girls ages 3-17 empowering young women and teaching them the importance of grace, poise, and elegance.
My Grow Girls foundation allows me to combine both passions teaching girls’ environmental awareness and to taking active roles in sustaining a healthy environment, while learning the importance of not comparing themselves to others and to love themselves for the unique individuals that they are.
I have so many amazing plans in the works, and I am excited to bring you all along for the ride! Your donations are greatly appreciated. To see all the events going on this next year please check out my IG and Facebook page @Missvirginiaearth 🌍💙💚
Let’s show the world what it means to be a beauty for a cause!!
