How To Help

Keelie Sheridan, a former Miss Brooklyn and 4th Runner-Up at Miss New York, had her home and all of her belongings destroyed by the storm surge caused by Hurricane Sandy. Unfortunately, she did not have renter’s insurance and is now forced to relocate.

Keelie  actively supports and participates in the local arts community while maintaining strong connections in Miss America local and state organizations.  Keelie, an avid volunteer, has raised hundreds of dollars for the Children’s Miracle Network, and brought permanent sponsors and appearances to the local titles she has represented. She has mentored her own sisters as well as her pageant sisters, and finished in the Top Five at the Miss New York Pageant.

Imagine losing all of your clothes, furniture, personal care items, kitchen essentials, electronics and keepsakes in one evening. Wouldn’t you wish for some help? Keelie has given so much to her pageant family and communities throughout New York, and its time for us to give back. If the enormity of disaster relief is too overwhelming, consider helping on a more personal level.

Please forward this website to volunteers, contestants, titleholders, friends and family. The Miss America Organization is all about giving back and helping young women; now is a chance for us all to pull together to do just that!

  1. Oh no, Keelie! How awful. Johnny and I are about to move to a smaller house, and as a result we’re downsizing quite a bit. Is there an address where I could send you things that we won’t have room for? I promise not to send any junk. <3

      Hi, Elizabeth! I’m the one who started the Paypal account for Keelie. As of right now, we’re not accepting items just because we’re not sure where Keelie is going to end up and we don’t know exactly what she needs. However, once we do have that info., I can let you know, if you wouldn’t mind holding on to the items until then. For more info, if you’re on Fscebook, check out the group Post-Flood Fundraiser for
