NEW YORK, Saturday May 12 2018,

Miss Nepal North America (MNA) – Miss Nepal North America is an international beauty pageant and a global platform for the Nepalese women of tomorrow. We are very pleased to announce that for the first time ever in the history of Nepalese Pageant, a pageant show that encompasses the entire continent of North America is going to take place on August 11 2018 in New York, NY. The event is a joint venture trademark pending event of Unnat International LLC and Dreams Universal LLC in local partnership with PNM and Lights Out Entertainment. With over 8 years of extensive experience in strategic event management, project management, and leadership management, the founding members and Miss Nepal North America Team have organized one of the best events in past in venues like Gotham Hall, Hammerstein Ballroom, The Fillmore, Queens Theater, The Melrose Ballroom, The State Theater, and many more. In past, the team has also been involved in rural development of Nepal, and has spent its resources in rehabilitation and reconstruction projects, and immediate relief efforts after the devastating Nepal earthquake of 2015.

empowering woman INItiative

Miss Nepal North America Team wants to highlight the issue of women's empowerment and gender inequality as this issue has been at the height of discussion all across the world. Gender inequality is imminent in all cultures, especially in developing countries where gender inequality is proliferating compared to the developed countries. With the mission of “Empowering Nepalese women to empower next generation”, we specialize not only in pageantry, but also in enhancing innate talents, improving leadership skills, social skills, and in providing a solid platform for the Nepalese women of tomorrow. We aim to equip the women of tomorrow with the skill set needed to succeed in this ever changing and challenging environment. We hire the best of the best mentors, leadership coaches, beauty coaches, choreographers, and bring in successful personalities from the industry to shape the participants to succeed in participant’s future field of choice.

The winner of Miss Nepal North America 2018 will also get an opportunity to volunteer with an international non-profit organization that will be chosen by our extreme vetting process. We strongly believe that volunteering will allow the participants to get involved with challenging scenarios and develop technical, social, and academic skills that could not be learned in a classroom environment. Volunteering also enables the participants expand their network of contacts, as a way of building their network that will be their valuable asset in both academic and professional field in the future.

Miss Nepal North America’s grand finale will be graced by National and International Media and fashion enthusiasts.
