Queens of Kindness: 25 Days of Christmas Kindness Our annual holiday tradition, UNM’s 25 Days of Christmas Kindness, has kicked off with a bang. The UNM crown and sash has come to symbolize more than just a glamorous pageant. It has become synonymous with kindness and service, as our system encourages a lifestyle of service and kindness among our delegates. During our 25 Days of Christmas Kindness campaign, you can spot UNM state and national titleholders doing good in their communities, spreading Christmas joy and doing acts of kindness each day! So far, hundreds of acts of kindness have been completed across the country in only one week! Be sure to keep up with all the wonderful things our state and national titleholders are doing this holiday season by frequently visiting our official Facebook fan page at www.Facebook.com/usanationalmiss. Photos of the Christmas Cheer will be posted often throughout the holiday season. Be inspired by some of the best young women in the country!
#UNMChristmasKindness National Day of Service to be Celebrated on Dec. 12
Serving others and spreading kindness is not something we do just during Christmas. At
UNM, we celebrate a lifestyle of service and encourage our state and national delegates to experience the joy of giving, serving and volunteering. It truly is so fulfilling! With that in mind, our organization hosts two National Days of Service throughout the pageant
year. This year, our first National Day of Service happens to be during our 25 Days of Christmas Kindness! How sweet is that? On December 12, UNM girls from across the USA will be found serving and volunteering all across the country!
