Contestants now have the opportunity to raise donations for the Miss America Organization's new national platform the Children's Miracle Network Hospitals. To begin, register at:
If you are doing this for the first time you will need to click on "New Contestants" and set up your profile. You must upload a .jpeg picture of yourself. Then you can send emails to friends and family to obtain donations. Contestants must raise $100 per each local entered.
