Keeley Boess, 2013 Miss California United StatesDesigned to raise awareness and money for many local, statewide, and national charities, the Miss California United State Pageant encourages delegates to support their passions through philanthropic endeavors.  Much like a diamond refracts light, each woman sparkles by changing the lives of all those they touch. Christina Meredith, our 2013 Ms California, has worked with foster care programs and charities since becoming a state titleholder. Because of sexual and physical abuse, Christina entered the foster system at ten years of age and like most foster kids, she moved over 91 times. She became homeless after "aging out" of the system at 18. Since winning her title, she has toured the country with speaking engagements, written a book, and has become an inspiration to many of the lives she has touched. Keeley Boess, 2013 Miss California United States, who placed in the Top 10 at the Miss United States Pageant, is a certified air traffic controller and works tirelessly supporting Alex's Lemonade Stand to fight pediatric cancer as well as the Rett Syndrome Foundation at the LA Children's Hospital.

The Miss California United States titleholders will attend several important events during the month of March including the Susan B. Komen Run for breast cancer on March 1st at Dodger Stadium, ShredFest at the House of Blues on Sunset Boulevard on March 15th, for pediatric cancer, the LA Suitcase Party on March 21 to benefit the Grammy Museum and the dance marathon, Lights Camera Cure!, being held at the Avalon Theater in Hollywood on March 23 to aid pediatric cancer research.

Prizes for the winners include entrance to the Miss United States Pageant in Washington DC, a July photo shoot with our official photographer Anacapa Event Photography as well as Kardashian photographer Nick Saglimbeni, facials by Beven Sangi Skin Fitness, coaching from Sashes & Crowns, Spray Tans from Cali Color Spray Tanning, makeup from Rain Cosmetics, Jewelry from our Official Jeweler, Lozano's Jewelry, and many more great items.  Every contestant receives a free dental cleaning from our official dentist, Potts Dental of Camarillo, a gift bag from the Camarillo Premium Outlets and much more.

Believed to be the oldest beauty pageant in the country, the earliest Miss United States identified in photographs was Miss United States 1925, and was awarded to Miss California. The Miss United States is also the sister organization to the well known Mrs. United States system.
