Miss Thick & Lovely Youth
Our Vision:
Founded by Kymm Barnett in early 2003, the Ms Thick & Lovely National Pageant aggressively tackles the leading causes of death amongst women in the United States. Cardiovascular disease, HIV, low self esteem and a host of others; that could be avoided through the power of knowledge and learning before it’s too late. Current statistics translates to 1 in 4 women die today, because they do not know what to look for, or know about prevention.
Our Purpose is to educate the women of tomorrow, by giving them a positive direction for a life of quality, health and happiness today.
In the observation of young women today coping with peer pressure, low-self esteem and being full figured; just to name a few obstacles in their lives. They find themselves in life altering encounters, changing the course of their future and forfeiting their dreams. These situations give our youth, nothing to work for and nothing to look forward to. Starting with self; we intend to get these ladies interested in good, safe, healthy life practices; so they will move into a future of greatness. Teaching them how to recognize, change habits and break away from things that kill them and their futures. Our ultimate goal; creates awareness and produces a host of beautiful, confident and prosperous women.
Because we recognizing heart disease, HIV and unwanted pregnancy claim the lives of women at a significant rate. We have created an event that will speak directly to young women about heart health and self respect through beauty and personal expression.
The Ms. Thick & Lovely National Pageant is a message to many women who don’t believe, it can or will happen to them. Our cause is one we feel all women, young and old alike, should stop, take a deep breath and recognize these killers. Know the facts, develope good life habits and strive towards a happy, long and healthy life.
Our Reason for this pageant is to bring awareness to all women who love to look great on the outside. We are providing a stage to display and applaud their work at being just as beautiful and healthy on the inside.
Thank You
