Each year, the Miss Earth USA organization partners with the B4ACUSA "Beauties for a Cause" nonprofit 501(C)(3) foundation through ambassador fundraising campaigns. This dedicated funding allows the foundation to in turn provide these young women with scholarships, grants, special event sponsorship, the annual mission trip and charitable projects throughout the year.
The Miss Earth USA organization focuses on environmental community impact, empowerment projects for women and girls, as well as the Still She Rose mental health initiative.
The ambassador campaign platform is hosted through SpotFund. All charitable gifts are 100% tax deductible and contribute directly to the nonprofit 501(C)(3) entity the B4ACUSA Foundation "Beauties for a Cause."

POLICIES
The annual giving campaign benefits Miss Earth USA’s official 501c3 organization (B4AC USA) - a not for profit entity registered in the state of Virginia.
The giving campaign does not affect overall scoring; however, any delegate who does NOT reach the minimum fund raising requirements will be ineligible to receive awards or become a finalist.
Spotfund makes all contributions directly to the nonprofit. The donor receives an email receipt. The fundraiser receives an email notification of the gift. The donor has the option to remain anonymous.
Minimum fundraising requirement for all delegates is $350 by December 31. These funds help provide on-site activities during the national pageant, including the kick off mixer, the Charity Gala Runway event and invitation to keynote speakers.
"Beauties for a Cause Scholarship Winners" - This year, the organization has implemented two incentive levels. The highest incentive level qualifies the candidate to be considered for scholarships up to $1,500. Incentive levels are $550 and $850. The lower incentive level qualifies candidates for a lower scholarship level consideration as well as reserves the candidate a runway model position during the January 2nd "Ignite the Runway" Charity Show, modeling their own Ignite attire as well as Elsa Fairy brand. Each scholarship finalists receives a plaque and on stage / social media recognition.
Elsa Fairy models are logged on December 18 in order to prepare designer sizes.
"Charitable Giving Winner" - The overall highest fund raiser in each division as of December 31 will automatically advance to the Top 5 of Teen Miss Earth USA and Miss Earth USA, and the Top 3 of the Youth programs, regardless of judge scoring.
If the divisional winner of charitable giving receives a judge’s score high enough to advance, the next highest charitable giving fund raiser who did not pre-rank by the judges will be included in the finals.
