Our mission is to uplift young women who inspire through service and shine with pride. About Miss Vietnam of San Diego™
The Miss Vietnam San Diego™ is established with the primary focus of elevating the Vietnamese-American woman as a national symbol of beauty and pride captured internally and externally through her poise, grace, intellectual strength, and individuality. The pageant serves to promote the Vietnamese culture by retaining the functions of the traditional ao dai, developing teamwork through cultural dance, and directing questions which demonstrate Vietnamese culture through the eyes of today's young Vietnamese women. Lastly, the Miss Vietnam San Diego pageant brings our community together. Uniting the women who participate, friends and family in the audience, and all those involved its formation, Miss Vietnam San Diego brings the Vietnamese community of San Diego closer together. It is an opportunity to develop long-standing friendships and bonds with peers of Vietnamese-American identities. It serves to elevate the Vietnamese-American woman, to promote our culture and heritage, to develop a lasting bond between the Vietnamese American community, and to define what it means to be united. The Miss Vietnam San Diego Pageant is part of the Vietnamese American Youth Alliance's San Diego Tet Festival, hosted annually at Mira Mesa Community Park. Learn more at www.sdtet.com
