A beauty pageant not only crowned some children but also showcased it's ability to give back. Kim Dawson started Beauty and Beaus Pageants as a way to help out St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, an organization she feels connected too. At 19, Dawson's husband passed away from non-Hogkin's lymphoma. Recently, her mother was also diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and Leukemia as well. All of the kids involved in the pageants, prepared actual Valentine's Day cards to send with Kim for the kids at St. Jude's. The pageant hopes their message is clear to all involved and makes a difference in everyone's lives. All of the parents should be happy their children are healthy and that every little bit of giving back can make a difference in someone's life.
