About This Event

Join us virtually as we run, walk, jog, or skip to raise money for college granted scholarships awarded at the Distinguished Young Women (DYW) of Florida state program! All proceeds go directly to cash scholarships awarded to our 2027 DYW Florida award winners.

On Saturday, January 16th in Orlando, Florida, young women from across the sunshine state will showcase their scholarship, leadership, talent, and public speaking abilities and compete to earn cash scholarships. One participant will earn the title of Distinguished Young Woman of Florida and advance to the national competition held in Mobile, Alabama in the summer of 2027.

Distinguished Young Women, formerly Junior Miss, is the largest scholarship program for high school girls in America. An entirely volunteer-led program, we strive to empower young women by providing scholarship opportunities and personal development to become confident leaders.
