I found all of that—and more—through this program. As Miss Kentucky’s Teen 2017, I earned the Miss America’s Teen Presidential Scholarship and pursued a degree in Musical Theatre at The University of Alabama. Surrounded by fellow titleholders who became lifelong friends, I stepped onto stages I had only dreamed of and grew into a confident, determined woman who knows she doesn’t need a crown to make a difference.


As Miss New York, my mission is to close the literacy gap by empowering children to read and equipping them with the tools to succeed. My community service initiative, Read → Lead → Succeed, was born from my own story—when my family lost our home at age 12, reading became my safe haven. From cookbooks to classics, books offered me consistency and hope during a time of chaos. Today, I bring that same hope to children through after-school programs in Title I schools, one-on-one tutoring with Reading Partners, and a national reading challenge, Book Buddies, which helps kids develop comprehension and conflict resolution skills through reading.


Outside of advocacy, I’m a career fundraiser and MBA candidate at NYU, specializing in leadership and change management. I help donors build legacies through scholarships and credit the Miss America Opportunity for guiding me toward this path. My ultimate goal is to serve as Executive Vice President of Programs for a major philanthropic foundation, championing educational equity through revitalized libraries and programming for underserved schools.


I am deeply honored to serve as Miss New York, not for recognition, but as a vessel to uplift the people and communities I love. This year, I’m committed to expanding literacy opportunities across New York’s 700 school districts and raising a record-breaking amount for the Miss New York Organization. Most of all, I hope every person I meet—whether in person or online—doesn’t just know Miss New York, but feels like they are friends with her.

As the daughter of a U.S. Marine Corps Colonel, Peyton has a deep appreciation for the sacrifices made by military families and a profound love for her country. Her father’s multiple deployments inspired her to foster unity within her community and promote civic participation and active citizenship.

Peyton’s leadership journey began in 2023 when she was selected as a United States Senate Page. During her transformative five-month experience living and working on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., she gained invaluable firsthand insight into the federal legislative process. Motivated by this experience, Peyton launched Civics in Motion, an initiative designed to educate individuals of all ages on the importance of government engagement and community involvement. She has expanded her program, collaborating with organizations such as the Winthrop Rockefeller Foundation, the Arkansas State Chamber of Commerce Civics Bee, and the Arkansas Secretary of State.

Peyton further amplifies her advocacy through Glimpses in Government, an Instagram series she created and hosts to make government more accessible to teens by featuring interviews with civic leaders at all levels. Balancing her advocacy work with academics, Peyton maintains a 4.2 GPA while taking college-level courses and serving as the All Student Body Vice President at her high school. She has earned recognition as an AP National Scholar with Distinction and was honored as Arkansas' Military Kid of the Month.

His journey began at the age of 8 when he discovered a passion for art while exploring various hobbies. Acrylic painting, mixed media, and pencil sketches quickly became his favorite mediums, and he started sharing his artwork with friends and family.

His inspiration for giving back came from visits to the nursing home where his mother works as an occupational therapist. Witnessing the loneliness and struggles of the residents, Arsh found joy in bringing smiles to their faces through conversation and therapy games. Deeply moved by these interactions, he was inspired to sell his artwork to support those in need.

Setting an initial fundraising goal of $1,000 for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, Arsh embarked on a mission to use his art for a greater purpose. Surpassing that goal fueled his passion further, and to date, he has raised and donated over $22,000 to various charities, with a strong focus on St. Jude.

Beyond fundraising, Arsh is honored to donate his paintings for charity auctions, create live paintings at nonprofit events, and teach art to children and adults. For over five years, he has volunteered at nursing homes, leading art lessons as a recreational activity to uplift residents.

Arsh also strives to inspire others through leadership roles. As a board member of Giving Tuesday and the Loukoumi Foundation, he works to promote kindness and generosity. His role as a Good Deed Council member of Loukoumi has allowed him to instill the values of service and compassion in students worldwide.

His dedication to art and philanthropy has earned him numerous prestigious awards, including:

  • The Princess Diana Award (UK)
  • International Star Kids Award
  • Gloria Barron Prize
  • High Flyer 50 (India)
  • KCRG-9 Who Care Award
  • National Thomas Jefferson Award

Through his art and advocacy, Arsh continues to create meaningful change, one brushstroke at a time.

Mallory personally embraced this mission and accepted a scholarship offer from the University of Kentucky (UK) in Lexington. Mallory is currently a senior at UK where she is studying Communications and Political Science, and she plans to attend law school post graduation. At the University of Kentucky, Mallory has been actively involved in organizations such as Alpha Delta Pi Sorority, UK Student Government Association, Leadership Development Program, DanceBlue, and UK Panhellenic Council.

Off-campus, Mallory has been in over 40 theatrical productions, including a feature film, Beauty Mark, which was awarded the Best Narrative Feature Audience Award at the Austin Film Festival. Her favorite role to date is Dolly Levi in Hello, Dolly!. Additionally, Mallory is a two time Kentucky State Beta Speech Champion, served as a 2023 Kentucky Derby Festival Princess, and was named a Cycle 12 Jovani "It Girl" for her modeling work with Jovani Fashions in Atlanta and New York.

Mallory's Community Service Initiative is Inclusive Stages, which is designed to provide theatrical and artistic opportunities for individuals with special needs. Through her CSI, Mallory has had the honor of implementing a number of initiatives to further inclusivity efforts in the state. For example, she has initiated inclusive acting classes for individuals with a diagnosis of Down syndrome, written a children's book Inclusive Stages, created a podcast "Inclusive Stages: Behind the Curtain," and distributed sensory kits to Kentucky theaters to make them more accessible for those individuals with sensory processing disorders. Ultimately, Inclusive Stages strives to teach people to look for capabilities instead of disabilities and welcome all to not only the theatrical stage but also to the stage that is life! Mallory was awarded the 2023 Kentucky Farm Bureau Quality of Life Award for her work with Inclusive Stages.

In her free time, Mallory enjoys singing, playing guitar, reading, working out, cheering on her Kentucky Wildcats, spending time with her beloved Goldendoodle Bella, watching a good 'whodunit' film with friends, attending her younger sister, McLaine's, sporting events, and traveling with her parents Todd and Caroline. During her year of service, Mallory will serve as the official spokesperson for Kentucky Proud through the Kentucky Department of Agriculture. Mallory is especially excited about this opportunity due to her grandfather being a proud Kentucky farm owner in Edmonson County. Mallory plans to travel the state encouraging Kentuckians of all ages to support their fellow Kentuckians by purchasing agricultural products and services made, grown, and produced locally.

Mallory hopes to be remembered as a Miss Kentucky who built intentional connections with Kentuckians, advocated for inclusion, led with a servant's heart, and empowered through education.

Ethan David Hill was born in August of 2010 to David Jr. and Ebony Hill. He is the awesome big brother to his little brother, Skyler Hill.

He is a 7th grade student at The Altamont School. He has obtained numerous academic honors. He participates in concert and jazz bands playing the trumpet. When he is not in school, Ethan is a competitive golfer in the PGAjr and US Kids leagues. Additionally, Ethan also serves on the media ministry at Revelation Church Ministries where he primarily operates and trains others on lighting and visuals.

Ethan is a firm believer that if you see a problem, you find a way to fix it. To that resolve, in the winter of 2016, Ethan took notice of a homeless gentleman on his way to school and wanted to know how he could personally assist him. He took his Christmas money that year and purchased survival supplies for the homeless gentleman and other homeless individuals in the area. His passion for assisting those who are less fortunate and without basic necessities sparked him to form his nonprofit organization, Ethan’s Heart Bags4Blessings. Ethan’s Heart provides services to address the immediate needs of the homeless and those at-risk of homelessness to deescalate the severity of malnutrition, ill-health, and death, while connecting them to services which lead to stable housing and helping to prepare them for independence.

Since 2016, Ethan has distributed over 2,800 care packages and sleeping bags. He has also provided other aid for those in need and partners with other agencies in the community to bridge services and to partner on several initiatives. He has been seen on Nickelodeon, The Kelly Clarkson Show, and has been featured in international and local news features. Ethan can also been heard on several podcast and radio shows. He has articles in Time Magazine, Southern Living Magazine, The Outdoor Magazine, The Reckon South Newsletter, and other printed mediums.

In 2021, Ethan had the wonderful opportunity to be selected as a 2021 Time Kid of the Year Top 20 Finalist, 2021 Minority Business Award Winner for Academic Leader, United Way Hands on Ignite Award Winner, City of Birmingham District 1 Super Citizen Award Recipient, and as earned several other honors.

Ethan believes that his calling from God is to be a servant leader for those in need.

Bethany cares deeply about her community and the environment. At the age of 5 she saw a homeless man holding up a sign. As she sat crying in her mom's car, she asked if she could break open her piggy bank and give him all of her money. Together they came up with a plan and Bethany's Happy Bags was born. What originally started with quart sized bags of snacks quickly turned into gallon sized bags packed with food and personal hygiene items. Today Bethany's bags include a drink, pack of wipes, mask, beef stick, tuna or chicken pack, fruit cup, crackers, Bombas socks, a homemade first aid kit and many other items. Most of the bags are being packed by the students at The Matthew Reardon Center for Autism which is a local school for students on the Autism spectrum. Packing bags helps teach them valuable skills such as working with others, communication, inventory and paying attention to detail. These are skills they will be able to utilize in their daily lives and at future jobs. The Happy Bags are distributed through the Savannah Police Department as well as several other local agencies and organizations. To date she has given out over 3,000 bags!

She also stays active in her community by helping out monthly at a local food pantry, packing boxes of food at America's Second Harvest and picking up litter in her city.

Arsh Pal- 12 years old
I Love nature, Animals, and along with travelling & playing I also love to read. I started my journey when I was 8 years old. I love making artwork using Acrylic paint, resin, mix media, and pencil sketch. I also like to recycle old paintings by refurbishing them. After making a couple paintings for friends/family, I decided to sell my artwork and support kids who are suffering from cancer. So, I started displaying my art at school, library, and other places. With the love and support of friends, family, and community I started collecting funds and made my first donation of $1000 to St Jude Children's Hospital. I also teach painting to kids/adults, and volunteer at nursing homes by teaching residents painting for their recreation.

Arsh Pal- 12 years old
I Love nature, Animals, and along with travelling & playing I also love to read. I started my journey when I was 8 years old. I love making artwork using Acrylic paint, resin, mix media, and pencil sketch. I also like to recycle old paintings by refurbishing them. After making a couple paintings for friends/family, I decided to sell my artwork and support kids who are suffering from cancer. So, I started displaying my art at school, library, and other places. With the love and support of friends, family, and community I started collecting funds and made my first donation of $1000 to St Jude Children's Hospital. I also teach painting to kids/adults, and volunteer at nursing homes by teaching residents painting for their recreation. So far, I have raised & donated $15000 to St Jude Research Hospital, Easterseals Central Illinois & other charities like Make-a-Wish, Compass to Care. I have been nominated in one of the top ten Movers, Shakers and Newsmakers from the Dubuque area chamber of commerce. My art has been displayed at many Art galleries, libraries, and schools.

Chris "CJ" Matthews' inspirational story began when his family experienced a loss at five years old. His grief sparked an idea. CJ wanted to help other kids who might be dealing with similar feelings of sadness. The idea led to creating a charitable project called "Blankies 4 My Buddies," which has since grown into a globally recognized organization that brings small tokens of comfort, like cozy blankets, to children dealing with traumatic situations from chronic illnesses to homelessness.

Now 14 years old, CJ has received numerous awards for his service, including being the 2019 YOU Awards International Community Service Honoree, aired on WSB-TV Atlanta, and named a Baskin Robbins Pint-Sized Hero July 2020 for his efforts during the COVID-19 pandemic. CJ is a Giving Tuesday Sparks leader, a youth ambassador in the global generosity movement. And Then There Was One is his first children's book, but he is already a published author. His award-winning poem, "I Am Great," appeared in Inklings Book 2019 (Society of Young Inklings, Inc). He contributed an essay about social justice to In Their Own Words: Relevant Essays from Brilliant Young People In The Year 2020. CJ plans to write more books.

CJ was born in Charleston, SC. His family moved to Atlanta when he was seven years old.

Today we’d like to introduce you to Nazhi “Thee Baker” Forrest in her own words.

I have been baking for a few years now and I have also battled Sickle Cell Anemia since birth. One thing that makes me unique is that my two sisters also are fighting sickle cell! All three of us have a rare sickle cell trait that strikes all female children from my parents.

After the tragic experience of witnessing my older sister have a massive stroke in 2014, I learned more about the history of our overlooked disease. I learned about trigger foods and special dietary needs that help people living with sickle cell stay healthy.

Since I love to bake, I decided to find new ways to make treats that we love. I came up with recipes for cakes that ANYONE could enjoy; even people battling Sickle Cell or on restricted diets. I have a big sweet tooth, so it was hard to find a way to create the same taste. I kept on testing until I found a great formula that uses organic and natural ingredients. Once my parents tasted what I was making, they knew I was on to something and Nazhi Thee Baker was born! That also gave life to Nazhi Thee Baker Angel Foundation. I use the proceeds of my cakes to buy toys and items needed by children with Sickle Cell, stuck in the hospital for extended periods of time.

We are spreading awareness about Sickle Cell and we have been blessed to have our story told on local and national television and radio! This is just the beginning of our journey and we hope to inspire others to do the same.

Chris "CJ" Matthews' inspirational story began when his family experienced a loss at five years old. His grief sparked an idea. CJ wanted to help other kids who might be dealing with similar feelings of sadness. The idea led to creating a charitable project called "Blankies 4 My Buddies," which has since grown into a globally recognized organization that brings small tokens of comfort, like cozy blankets, to children dealing with traumatic situations from chronic illnesses to homelessness.

Now 14 years old, CJ has received numerous awards for his service, including being the 2019 YOU Awards International Community Service Honoree, aired on WSB-TV Atlanta, and named a Baskin Robbins Pint-Sized Hero July 2020 for his efforts during the COVID-19 pandemic. CJ is a Giving Tuesday Sparks leader, a youth ambassador in the global generosity movement. And Then There Was One is his first children's book, but he is already a published author. His award-winning poem, "I Am Great," appeared in Inklings Book 2019 (Society of Young Inklings, Inc). He contributed an essay about social justice to In Their Own Words: Relevant Essays from Brilliant Young People In The Year 2020. CJ plans to write more books.

CJ was born in Charleston, SC. His family moved to Atlanta when he was seven years old.

She is also a patient whose mother, Mindy, is a kidney transplant recipient and the inspiration behind her non-profit organization, The MinMinBear Foundation.

In 2011, Rachelle’s mission to help others gained a voice in the form of a crown when she won the title of Miss Arizona United States. During her reign, Rachelle dedicated her year to educating and advocating for kidney disease patients while teaching the importance of living organ donation. Rachelle worked as a spokesperson traveling to various conferences, making press appearances, and volunteering on behalf of organizations like The Donor Network of Arizona and the National Kidney Foundation.

During her year as Miss Arizona United States, Rachelle also created the MinMin Bear Initiative, a temporary program that generated monetary benefits for organ donation recipients and their families in Arizona.  This program is ultimately what motivated the launch of an official 501(c)3, a non-profit organization, The MinMinBear Foundation in 2020.

The Foundation originally launched with a single initiative, the MinMinBearChallenge, but the Foundation and its mascots didn't stop there. In 2021, they focused on a new mission to help fight kidney disease and share the stories of the people that it impacts the most.  By the end of 2021, The Foundation will have distributed over 2600 bears to families impacted by kidney disease, bringing comfort, education, and advocacy nationwide.

In Rachelle's professional life, she's been in the media industry working as a TV Host and Producer for over 15 years. Most recently, you might have seen Rachelle shopping with millions of people from all over the country, as a home shopping host for QVC. Although she is best known for her role on the CW's Mother of all Pageants, some of her favorite career highlights include hosting on major red carpets like NBC, HBO, CMT Awards shows, and more. Rachelle's interviews have included some of Hollywood's biggest celebrities, music icons, and sports stars, including Mark Ruffalo, Tom Hanks, Ava DuVernay, Felicity Jones, Reba McIntire, Zac Brown Band, John Legend, Larry Fitzgerald, and Kurt Warner, to name a few.

When she is not on set or on the red carpet, you can catch this happily married newlywed with her husband traveling the world, organizing a community project, or attempting to teach their Lhasa Apso, Daisy, new tricks.

It was created by co-founders Taylor Piatt, Heather Piatt, Hannah Piatt, Sophie Hoffa, Walter Hoffa, and Leo Hoffa, located in Anthem and Tramonto. Y4T became an official non-profit in April 2017, but they’ve been passionate about serving and volunteering since they were young. Youth for Troops hopes that this generation will develop a respect and appreciation for those that protect our liberties and freedoms through meaningful experiences and unique volunteer opportunities. 

Their mission is “To inspire patriotism in fellow youth and across generations by volunteering on behalf of service members and veterans through community service, advocacy, and education.” All six youth board members have had a passion for serving our military and veterans for many years. However, the majority of community service opportunities were geared towards adults, so they decided to start an organization that would allow anyone from ages 0 to 120 to volunteer with them. 

Youth for Troops hosts monthly activities, including a Care Packages for Deployed Troops event, held on the second Monday of every month at the Outlets at Anthem. Volunteers of all ages fill care packages with food and hygiene items that are shipped to our deployed heroes, with a total of 5,352 boxes shipped since 2018. They have raised over $80,280 to cover shipping costs  and have filled each box with in-kind donations from local schools, businesses, organizations and individual supporters. Y4T also holds a Plastic Mats for Homeless Veterans event on the third Tuesday of each month. Volunteers sort and cut plastic bags into strips, and then crochet them into decorative mats that are given to homeless veterans. It takes 700-900 recycled plastic bags and many volunteer hours to make one mat. Y4T has distributed 535 plastic mats throughout the state since this event started. 

Youth for Troops founders are proud members of Arizona Patriot Guard Riders, who hold flags at active military homecomings, veteran events, and military funerals. Y4T also collaborates with Arizona Honor Flight to support WWII, Korean, and Vietnam Veterans, and serve meals at reunion banquets. Y4T founders are also members of the Daisy Mountain Veterans and they participate in their annual DMV Veterans Parade. 

The Youth Board will gladly present to schools, clubs, corporate team building activities, and special events and provide patriotic projects. Through family-friendly community service projects and patriotic events, Y4T volunteers have accumulated over 22,800 community service hours supporting veterans and deployed heroes. 

Youth for Troops was honored with a flag that was flown over NATO Headquarters in Afghanistan.  It was delivered by a local hero that received their care packages while stationed in country. Y4T was recently presented with the 2020 Anthem Veterans Service Award from the Anthem Community Council and has been honored with a Congressional Recognition from Arizona’s District 8 Congresswoman Debbie Lesko. Y4T was also honored to have a proclamation read into the United States House of Representatives in Washington, D.C. in 2019. Y4T was also awarded the Anthem Area Chamber of Commerce 2018 Non-Profit of the Year award, and Hulafrog Most Loved Local Charity 2019.

After a few months and several surgeries, I was declared cancer free but chose to start the Melanoma Awareness & Prevention Program to educate others about skin cancer and how to prevent it. I have visited numerous classrooms and organizations across the state of Arkansas to give my presentation and tell my story. I have also raised thousands of dollars for cancer research and was the 2019 AIM at Melanoma Dallas Walk Honoree. I am currently writing a children’s book about sun safety and plan to have it published by later this year. Cancer is something I am not glad to have had but I am thankful for the opportunities it provided; being able to help just one person avoid going through what I did is well worth it.

Dana founded Cookies4Cures on her 7th birthday when she started raising money for her friend, Mila, who had been diagnosed with  a rare and fatal genetic disorder called Batten. She baked cookies and sold them out of a red wagon with a sign that said “Cookies4Mila.”

Her first goal was $1000 and it took three months of weekly wagon sales to get there. Inspired to do more, she started a GoFundMe site, recruited more kids, and continued holding ever bigger bake sales. Three months later, at the end of the year, she and her friends had raised $56,000. More importantly, they helped fund research that led to the first ever treatment for Mila’s form of Batten. The doctors called it Milasen, and it was life-changing.

        Once Mila started her treatment, Dana had to decide what to do next. Another friend, Ollie, had been recently diagnosed with PANS (pediatric acute-onset neuropsychiatric syndrome). Her team of kids started baking and Cookies4PANS was born. One year later, they had raised $30,000 and helped the Stanford PANS Clinic hire a new researcher, Dr. Rahmen.

Dana realized that her cookie baking had the potential to help kids everywhere struggling with rare diseases so she turned her passion into a nonprofit, Cookies4Cures. Her goal is to eventually have a Cookies4Cures campaign for every rare pediatric disease.  

        In September of 2019, Dana was honored as the Rising Star Champion of Hope by the Global Genes organization. Her acceptance speech brought 1000 people to their feet and inspired a new wave of people to get involved with Cookies4Cures. Recently, she was honored as a 2020 winner of the Gloria Barron Prize for Young Heroes.

What began as a little girl selling cookies out of a red wagon has blossomed into an organization with over 100 volunteers who have baked more than 20,000 cookies and raised over $150,000. Dana started with Cookies4Mila and then Cookies4PANS. Then, she launched Cookies4SMA for Spinal Muscular Atrophy and Cookies4Sophie for an ultra-rare disease called MCTO. Several more Cookies4Cures fundraisers are already in the wings.

        As Dana says, “When a child has a rare disease with no cure, research is hope.” Cookies4Cures is funding hope, one cookie at a time.
