Raising Funds for New Smiles!

Hello guys! So I have noticed that I am getting so addicted to blogging...HAHA can't help it is so much fun to blog about how much fun I am having recently that is pageant related!

So I wanted to make a blog about my fundraiser for my platform...Operation Smile! I have known of this organization since I was little and with having this birth defect of a bilateral cleft lip and palate, I was personally connected with this. When my father would tell me to turn it to a channel the commercial was on for Operation Smile, I felt so bad for those kids who couldn't have the access like I had to doctors and surgeries. I wanted to make a change.

I thought it would be cool to donate to my platform before the pageant to show how much I really do care and want to make a difference. But my boss suggested to do a fundraiser through the month of August for Operation Smile. So I did and I started actually in Mid-July and I already have more then my goal is!

My goal was $240 which is enough for one surgery to a child through Operation Smile. But so far I have $580!!! I feel so blessed that I am being used to make a difference. Now I hope to raise enough to sponsor an operating table, which is $600...seems like it won't be a problem. :) As I continue this fundraiser through August...well when August comes :)...I will update you on how it goes and let you know how much it all comes to!

I also want to take this time to thank my workplace and sponsor in the pageant, Heartland Kitchen & Cafe for letting me do this and my wonderful community for giving to my platform!
Remember you are giving a new smile to a child who is going day to day thinking, "Why am I like this, why was I born this way?" Completely changing lives here.

Hello there, again!!

Hello everyone!! Well it's almost has been a year since I have written a blog on here. So I have some very exciting news. Since I competed at Miss Minnesota International 2014, I first decided not to compete in pageants anymore. I was worried that God wouldn't get the glory if I continued to compete. He is why I would compete. Also I felt like I couln't be me, like I had to wear a mask. But just recently I decided to get back in. I will be competing in Miss Brainerd Lakes in August of this year. I feel very excited to get back in and try a new pageant in a system that I love. I already have set up a volunteer opprotunity/fundraiser in the summer to raise money for the Children's Mircle Network in order for me to compete & also for the organization tied to my platform, Operation Smile. It will be A LOT of fun!! I also purchased my swimsuit for the pageant & got my talent set up. I know this will be the best pageant I have yet to ever compete in!!!  When I

This Saturday is the day!

Wow it is finally the week of the pageant! But it is not cool that I also have 2 tests this week. Ugh I'll manage, through God I will prosper! So I have been practicing mad hard and praying about it! I feel confident and comfortable! Not overly confident where I am thinking 'I got this in the bag' but ready to have fun and ready for what God has planned! I just am nervous that if I don't get anything that I will get sad and really upset! Hopefully I will be happy and have fun no matter what. If I were to capture the title, I would hope to impact others and prove that though I was born with a birth defect... God has a bright future for me and I am able to succeed just by competing! I would love to help out anywhere I could! And hope to be that role model for girls that I always had which was a confident girl who isn't perfect but isn't afraid to be themselves! Well it's getting late and I have a test tomorrow...ekk! Til next time. -Tiffany A Pageant

A pageant life is a wonderful life!

Hello may I start out by saying my name is Tiffany and I am a high school graduate going to college to major in Young Education. I have competed in one pageant in my life and I plan on continuing on the pageant road. I have competed in a local scholarship pageant and I am in the same pageant again this year. I thought I would share the memories that have been created this year. The pageant is on August 16, 2012...Which means I am SO CLOSE to the pageant. I feel God has something special for me this year either it being getting a title or inspiring others to embrace who they are. I am happy. So please take a walk with me as I share my journey to the crown. Hopefully this year we shall EARN it and make a change in the community. May God be my guide and I shall be leaded to what victories He has for me. Sincerely, Tiffany A Pageant Queen in waiting :)                                       Me last year in the 2011 Miss Crosby-Ironton Scholarship Pageant
