On behalf of Miss United Nations USA 2013, all proceeds will be donated to Toys for Tots in conjunction with her helmet safety platform, "Don't be insane, protect your brain!", which aims at promoting awareness about helmet safety and was inspired by one of her best friends, Jose Miranda.
Jose was involved in a motorcycle accident on July 1, 2013 when he was unable to avoid a collision on I-15 and was ejected from his motorcycle. His helmet felt off before impact (http://www.ksl.com/?nid=148&sid=25836183). Currently, he is still in critical condition and a coma. “Jose is still fighting for life every single day. But I believe Jose is still alive for a reason. A couple days after his accident, there was another motorcycle accident on I-15, but that cyclist died on impact. I know that if Jose could open his eyes right now and talk, he wouldn’t want anyone else to go through what he has.”
Her plan during her year of reign is to encourage youths to pledge that they will always wear a helmet when they get on a bicycle, scooter, or motorcycle. She will also be raising awareness about how to find the right size helmet and securing it properly. Additionally, she will be fundraising for donations so that by this Christmas, she can donate 500 helmets to Toys for Tots in Jose’s name. “I want to make sure that when a bicycle, scooter, or even a pair of rollerblades is given out to a child from an underprivileged family, there will be a helmet to go with it as well.”
