Acerca de Certamen
Miss Rhode Island Latina:
Hemos luchado para hacer nuestro certamen Miss Rhode Island Latina un evento entretenido, colorido y apreciado no solo por la nuestra comunidad hispana sino tambien por todas las diversas culturas que componen el estado de Rhode Island.
Creo que nuestro certamen Miss Rhode Island Latina ha ayudado no solo a unificar y entender nuestras culturas sino tambien ha creado un Puente entre todos y nos ha ayudado a apreciar nuestras numerosas similitudes.
Mostrando todas las contibuciones de nuestra comunidad Latina en los foros publicos, incentivando, reconociendo y remunerando la execlencia de la mujer hispana, hemos hecho nuestro mejor esfuerzo para merecer el reconocimiento de las similitudes entre nuestra gente no solamente sus diferencias.
Esta aceptacion nos ha ayudado a crear lazos de amistad y tolerancia entre todos, y al mismo tiempo nos une en uno solo, residentes de Rhode Island.
Cuando enviamos a nuestra ganadora Miss Rhode Island Latina como representante al certamen Miss Latina USA, enviamos a una jovencita que no solo representa a la comunidad Latina, tambien compartimos con el resto del mundo los ideales y el legado que nuestro padre fundador Roger Williams dejo hace ya tanto tiempo: tolerancia entendimiento y amabilidad. Ella en verdad representa a todos los residentes de Rhode Island.
Hemos enviando este mensaje de Miss Rhode Island Latina al mundo por los ultimos 22 años y esperamos tolerancia y entendimiento para con todos alrededor del mundo.

About Miss Rhode Island Latina
We strive to make our pageant, Miss Rhode Island Latina a colorful and entertaining event that is appreciated not only by the Hispanic community, but by our culturally diverse Rhode Island neighbors as well.
I believe our Miss Rhode Island Latina pageant has helped provide insight and understanding to bridge the truly few cultural differences between us, and also help us all appreciate the vast number of similarities.
By showcasing the many contributions of our Latino community in a public forum, and by encouraging, recognizing, and rewarding excellence in our Hispanic women, we strive to raise a public awareness of the similarity between all people, not just our differences.
This understanding helps to strengthen the bonds of friendship and neighborly tolerance between us all, and binds us tightly into one people, Rhode Islanders.
When we send our contest winner, Miss Rhode Island Latina as our representative to Miss Latina US, we send a young lady who not only represents our Latina Community, but goes to share with the entire world the very ideals that Rhode Island Founding Father Roger Williams set so long ago, tolerance, understanding and kindness. She truly represents all Rhode Islanders.
We have been sending that message from Miss Rhode Island Latina to the world for the last 22 years and continue to hope for understanding and tolerance with all people around the world..
