Who We Are
Our Mission...
About Us...
To empower the young women of Yakima County to become compassionate leaders through community service, personal growth, and mentorship.​
Glitter and Grace of Yakima County is a unique, non-profit pageant system dedicated to youth empowerment. We believe that by encouraging girls to be "fired up" about the needs of their community today, we prepare them to be the role models of tomorrow.
Our Programs...
We offer two distinct tracks tailored to different age groups and goals:
-
Sparkles & Lace (Ages 4–13): A fun, non-competitive introduction to pageantry focused on making friends, gaining confidence, and early community involvement.
-
Glitter & Grace (Ages 11–25): Our competitive division where participants develop leadership skills and compete for scholarship funds while leading local service projects
Why Join Us...
-
Build Confidence: Gain public speaking and interpersonal skills in a supportive environment.
-
Serve Yakima: Give back through hands-on Community Service Projects.
-
Earn Scholarships: Compete for funding to support your future education.
-
Create Lasting Friendships: Connect with other young leaders in our community.
