Filipinos are known to be pageant enthusiasts. Who wouldn't be, when our beauty queens continue to dominate different pageantries all over the world.

But do you ever wonder the reason behind every aspiring candidate to join beauty pageants, including what's becoming popular now, which is online beauty pageants, like the search for the Aliwan Fiesta Digital Queen?

For Jannarie Zarzoso, the first-ever Aliwan Fiesta Digital Queen, there were two factors that motivated her to join last year’s search: to represent their city and to help her chosen charity.

An aspiring candidate has the chance to represent her dearly beloved city and to showcase its richness to the Philippines. At the start of the competition legs, candidates will present and elaborate on a local delicacy/product, their festival tradition, and a custom peculiar to the region through the Pride of Place presentation. Jannarie represented the city of Cabadbaran in the province of Agusan del Norte which she took pride of its calmness and serenity fueled with its culture and tradition.

An aspiring candidate has also the chance to help her chosen charity, it may be a non-governmental or any type of organization in her place. In this year’s Aliwan Fiesta Digital Queen, there will be a new competition called ‘Queen for a Cause’ where candidates can share their advocacy or the cause they are supporting. In her last year’s win, Jannarie had the chance to give a significant amount to her chosen charitable program, the Protect, Feed, Save Inc.

So, if you are looking for an online pageant that has all the factors on how to become a true beauty queen, this is your chance to join the search for Aliwan Fiesta Digital Queen 2021!
