OUR SCHOLARSHIP ORGANIZATION
The Miss Johnston County Organization is an official preliminary to the Miss North Carolina Organization and
has been in existence for the past 38 years.This past year
the Miss North Carolina organization provided over $100,000 of scholarship monies to young women across our state. Our organization provides young women the chance to further their dreams and aspirations and to instill an opportunity to give back to communities across North Carolina through their social impact initiatives.
The Miss Johnston County/Miss Cleveland Competition is a means for awareness of the Miss North Carolina and Miss America Organization. Our local organization supports our young women during their year of service to become confident and strong women who share not only their social initiative and talent, but the opportunity to express their views on local, regional, national and global issues. We support higher education for advancing academic goals by using the model of competition. This experience prepares our candidates to accept life’s challenges and to produce role models who exemplify and promote positive values.
