Thank you for bringing some happiness to the less fortunate people of our country”.The Miss World Festival 2009 began with a special Charity Dinner to launch the Variety International Children’s Fund. The event raised over $400,000 for nutritional, educational and medical projects in Haiti.The 2010 Charity Auction was held in Shanghai. The auction raised 1.8 million RMB to assist the recovery of people affected by floods that had devastated Hainan Island. Further donations saw the total rise to nearly 10 million RMB. Julia Morley and the Miss World contestants then visited the worst-hit areas, distributing tonnes of rice and cooking oil, as well as bringing the much needed funds.However, Beauty With A Purpose does not stop with just the titleholder. National representatives and licence holders are actively encouraged to support worthy projects in their own countries. Part of the brief to contenders in each country is that they volunteer their time or fundraise for projects in their own countries.

Their hard work is rewarded with a guarantee of continued support for their chosen cause from Miss World.
