The Beauty with a Purpose program is one of the most important parts of the Miss World pageant. The charity has raised millions of dollars to participate in various humanitarian projects across the world since its inception in 1972.
Each year, all the Miss World contestants come up with their Beauty with a Purpose (BWAP) projects – working for a cause they choose. The videos of their projects are released on the pageant’s official YouTube channel. During the finale, the winner(s) of this special award is/are announced, who are then helped by the organisation to continue working for the cause.
For her BWAP project; Nepal’s representative this year, Shrinkhala Khatiwada, raised Rs. 5 million to build a health post in Kailash Rural Municipality – 7 of Makwanpur district. The health facility, designed by Shrinkhala herself, is constructed in the Chepang settlement.
