Rae was supported by TJ’s Deli and Pizza Greco.
The National American Miss Pageants are meant to honor America’s strengths and inspire the next generation of leaders. The National American Miss Pageants give away $1.5 million in cash, scholarships, and gifts every year to honor and help the growth of young women across the country.
The National American Miss program is meant to help young women across the country become successful. It is tailored to each girl’s age and family needs.
For “Today’s Girl” and “Tomorrow’s Leaders,” the National American Miss Pageants are to be held. The pageant program is built on inner beauty, poise, and presentation. It’s also a fun way for family and friends to enjoy the “All American Spirit.”
A lot of emphasis is put on building self-confidence, learning new skills, having a positive view of competition, and making and reaching personal goals. The event wants to show each girl what she’s done well and inspire her to set goals for the future.
