Special needs pageant gives everyone the chance to feel beautiful

People of all ages were showing off their talents at the 5th annual Beautiful You Pageant.

The beauty pageant is for anyone with a disability of any kind.

Participants come out in their dress of choice, perform a talent, then get to strut their evening wear. Everyone gets a crown and trophy.

“I think everybody deserves to be beautiful and this is a day that everyone gets to shine on a time they might normally get to,” Angela Ebersole, the Beautiful You Pageant Director & Founder, said.

Twenty-six people participated in this year’s event. They ranged from age 3-57.

All money raised goes to the non-profit More Beautiful You Inc.
