Miss Singapore International is a competition organised by the Singapore Women's Association.
History
The Singapore Women's Association (SWA), a charity organization has been organising beauty pageants since 1975 and is the first organisation to raise funds for the needy through beauty pageants. The funds raised have benefited many underprivileged children, old folks and the community. For the past 43 years, SWA has been the organiser of the Miss Singapore/Miss International beauty pageant.
Purposes
The fundamental aspect of the Miss Singapore International is its "Beauty with Heart & Purpose" to inculcate in our young women a sense of community and charity. It is a platform for young women to develop themselves as women leaders through the various training programs and involvement in its charity activities.
Our aim for this group is to create awareness, and encourage participation and contribution for charitable causes.
