"The Mr. Davis pageant has been a large part of the overall Davis community for a storied amount of years. By personally participating in this great program, I am being provided a wonderful opportunity to give back to the community, that had blessed me with so much, by raising money for kids who need support." - Cadin, Davis senior

A 25 year tradition, pageants directly benefit pediatric programs through Childrens Miracle Network at Yakima Valley Memorial and Childrens Village, serving thousands of children each year through hospital treatment, educational programs, and family services. Participating high schools organize a non-traditional pageant for boys where contestants are judged in a number of categories, including creativity, faculty review, and individual fundraising. The schools contribution is a result of individual contestant fundraising, the pageant night itself, as well as other events held throughout the school year. As a student-organized philanthropy project centered on raising awareness and funds for children in dire need of special health care, this program enhances school unity and fosters community involvement.
