The pageant stereotype scares some young people away - but the thousands of community aware and active young women who are part of the Miss America's Outstanding Teen organization know that it is not a "pageant," but truly a platform to, not only earn scholarship money, but make their voices heard. (You know, like in Miss Congeniality - "It's not a pageant - It's a scholarship program!") With a crown on your head, people stop and listen. It's a chance to change your community, or change the world.

Sino Scholar is a non-profit project supported by a Michigan high school club, Sino Club. We seek to lend a hand to those half-way around the world by supporting children in poverty to obtain opportunities to go to school. In the summer 2007, we gave $25 to two students each, making them able to attend school for the entire year! After seeing the impact of that small sum, we hope to expand our cause and reach even more students this year and allow our fellow sisters and brothers around the school continue to be students.

The mission of the Youth Action is to encourage youth to participate in missionary work and promote a culture of public service by providing sponsorships for those that may be financially unable to pay for their passage. As our cooperative grows, the organization’s mission will also provide direct support to projects related to domestic and international mission trips.
The Youth Action was organized to serve youth who share an ethic of service and who are motivated to effect change in their communities and the world at large.

The Ashley Spears Art Scholarship Fund was formed in 2006 by Terry and Ashley Spears in order to help keep art in needy schools. All monies are raised in two forms: private donations and donations for charcoal portraits done by Ashley. Ashley began doing charcoal portraits of children for free in 2004 at the Great Gulfcoast Art Festival in Pensacola, Florida, where she draws between 300 and 400 children in 3 days taking only 2 to 3 minutes for each sketch. Just last year dd she begin collecting donations to this fund. She draws portraits at all sorts of events and places now.

For my project, I will be creating a scholarship program for the school. In this project, I hope to relieve some of the stress of finding scholarships with the money you need for college, or any other post-secondary learning institute. In my project, the students who are interested in the program will become members once they are signed up and those who are academically qualified will become members that are qualified for the various available scholarships. When signing up for this program, the students will be required to complete the attached application, with parental consent.

HUGS Helping Us Grow Strong was started by a group of friends at a lower income high school, with the dreams of motivating female teens ages 13-17. That are challenge by there environment as a result they act out in school to express what's going in their lives and in their homes. The truth is they just need a little guidance from their peers. We designed this program because I was one of these female teens. I had so many problems going on at home; that I expressed my anger at school.

This will be a program to encourage young teens during high school years to know that all things are possible if they apply themselves and if they encourage themselves. Some kids have no self- confidence and that is why I plan to start a scholarship fund through my church for the next four years money will be raised for a high school graduate in the church so that they can become all that they want to be. We will make it happen...
