I have been involved with the Miss Oakland Scholarship Pageant since 2005. It was an honor to serve as the reigning Miss Oakland in 2006. The committee members and volunteers are wonderful people and a joy to work with. This group believes in the development of young women and I am proud to be a part of it. Recently one of the girls I've had the pleasure of watching grow through this local organization was crowned as California's Outstanding Teen at the state competition. It is because of the dedication and care from the voluneteers of this program that these girls are able to acheive their dreams and recive scholarship money to further their educations. I would highly recomend supporting this group. I wouldn't still be around if I didn't LOVE it.
