Women Impacted

Since joining the Miss New Hampshire Scholarship Program, I’ve grown tremendously, both personally and professionally, developing valuable skills in public speaking, leadership, and advocacy, and I’m proud to have been recognized as a top interviewer.

As Miss Lakes Region Teen, I’m honored to promote my Community Service Initiative: Literacy Lifeline: Empowering Minds, One Book at a Time, raising awareness about the importance of reading and providing mini libraries to children across New Hampshire.

To date, I’ve earned over $5,500 in scholarship funds, which will support my academic journey as I pursue a dual major in Pre-Law and Business. I’m excited for the opportunity to serve the Lakes Region community.

Since starting my journey in the Miss America Program I have been able to define and achieve numerous goals in which I never could have imagined had I not become involved in MAO in 2015. I successfully grown both of my personal and professional development, being able to connect with my community, and advocate for things that I am passionate for such as my community service initiating Take Action; Advocating for Acceptance. I have seen myself grow by constantly setting goals and working to achieve them, and am proud to have placed amongst the top 5 at Miss New Hampshire twice, and I’ve even successfully earned enough scholarship money to pay off my student loans!

My name is Aly Blais and I’m so excited to continue advocating for the food insecure in our beautiful state as your Miss Lilac State’s Teen! Throughout my time competing in the Miss New Hampshire Teen Scholarship Program, I have been able to earn almost $7000 in scholarships towards my higher education goals. Not only has this program afforded me an opportunity to raise awareness about an issue I am passionate about all while earning scholarship money, I have also met some of my very best friends and sister titleholders in this program. I’m filled with gratitude and looking forward to seeing what this new year and opportunity will bring!

Growing up in the Miss America system has shaped the person I am today. While I’ve been fortunate to achieve many milestones, my proudest moment was being crowned Miss New Hampshire’s Teen and representing my state on the Miss America stage. Through this incredible scholarship program, I’ve gained lifelong friendships, educational opportunities, and a second family that continues to uplift and inspire me.
To date, I’ve earned $4,950 in scholarships through the Miss New Hampshire’s Teen program and an additional $15,500 through the Miss New Hampshire program—funds that are helping me pursue my education in Voice Arts at the legendary CalArts.
It’s also an honor to currently serve as Miss Lilac State, and I’m enjoying every moment of representing this incredible community. I’m beyond excited to join my sisters on the Miss New Hampshire stage next year!
