Miss Earth
After establishing a track record in mounting world-class beauty pageants over the last decade, Carousel Productions Inc. decided to reinvent and improve the concept of beauty competitions for the new millennium.
Because many people admire and aspire to be a beauty queen, Carousel Productions, Inc. believed beauty queens would be a good and effective advocate of worthy causes. To give life to this vision, Carousel organized and launched in 2001 the MISS EARTH® Beauty Pageant, a beauty event whose raison d’etre was to have its candidates and winners actively promote and get involved in the preservation of the environment and the protection of Mother Earth.
True Beauties for a Cause
Established in 2004, Miss Earth Foundation, Inc. is a non-stock, non-profit organization which ably serves as the environmental-social-humanitarian outreach arm of the MISS EARTH® organizations here in the Philippines and abroad. With its dedication to propagate environmental awareness and initiate changes with small and big impacts, MISS EARTH® winners, as well as delegates, become spokespersons and role models using their influence to send the urgent messages across. MISS EARTH FOUNDATION, INC. works with the local and international groups and non-governmental organizations that are also actively involved in worthwhile environmental causes such as the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) in the Philippines.
