The pageant provides all men and women with the opportunity to join together in a pageant setting with comparable upbringings of the West Indies, to reinforce relationships with others who are working diligently to leave a positive impact in their communities. As the West Indies delegates journey together and share their community volunteer projects, ideas and objectives with each other, they become unified as pageant brother/sisters in the West Indies Pageants Family. This sister/brotherhood strengthens them to see beyond their immediate surroundings and situations whilst extending their service across the West Indies. As each delegate share ideas of how he/she serves his/her community, he/she and all whom he/she meets will be strengthened and edified because their paths have crossed. As a representative, you will carry your national title for a year which is destined to be one of the most exciting times of your life.
