Image Caribbean Cultural Society, Inc - Celebrating the Spirit of the Caribbean and Empowering Our Youth

The Ms. Orlando Caribbean Pageant is the culmination of years of thought, effort, and experience of founder Heather Chisholm and her deep rooted community spirit. The goal was to assist women to cultivate values and attitudes that would lead to personal growth and goal achievement. The idea

was to motivate young women to persevere through strenuous, demanding and time consuming processes long enough to acquire the attitudes that would sustain outstanding achievement. At the conception of this vision the participants were not involved in a pageant. The holding point was a modeling agency, “the something glamorous” to keep them interested. After relocating to the United States, the drive to help, guide, encourage and teach character building through the same media remained strong. Through a team that personifies tenacity and the desire to share and inspire others the Image Caribbean Cultural Society emerged as a non-profit entity with the same mission. The Ms. Orlando Caribbean Pageant was used to replace modeling as the “the something glamorous” to keep the young women interested long enough to persevere in spite of the demands required to make it through to the goal. The pageant has now expanded to include a wider array of ethnic minorities as the need for direction and character building does not only exist in the Caribbean community among Caribbean women. Today we are moving forward with The Ms. Orlando Caribbean Pageant to accommodate women who are not of Caribbean descent. We are not sure where this journey will take us tomorrow but we are positive that this organization will get stronger in our continued dynamic efforts to respond to varying needs in our community. We are destined to make an impact.

Our mission is to contribute to the social, intellectual, interpersonal and emotional development of young women. We implement programs to facilitate the empowerment of of our participants by building self esteem, fostering cultural and community awareness, cultivating personal values and developing the ability to assert self, ultimately to create role models or youth embassadors. Participants will be exposed to growth opportunities that can help them to become more aware of self and develop direction. They particpate in seminars, work shops, networking programs, community services entities, media and communication programs and training exercises. Our ladies are also groomed in hair care, aesthetics, make-up application, self presentation (verbal and physical) and business etiquette. The exposure provided aims to help them be more aware of self, community and be able to cultivate and sustain personal growth.
