Ashleigh Udalovas is the chair of a local First Book Advisory Board in Cumberland County, New Jersey, and a strong supporter of children’s literacy. She is also Miss New Jersey, and we want to help her become Miss America! Not only because she’s one of First Book’s hard-working volunteers, but because her personal platform is about promoting the importance of reading and literacy, something we agree with wholeheartedly.
You can watch Ashleigh’s official video online (it’s short!), and then cast your vote.

If she wins, Ashleigh will promote First Book and children’s literacy at the national level, traveling over 20,000 miles a month and speaking to thousands of potential volunteers and sponsors throughout the year … all while still managing her duties as chair of Cumberland County’s First Book local Advisory Board.
Don’t forget to tune in to the 2011 Miss America Pageant, presented live from Las Vegas on Saturday, Jan. 15 on ABC to (hopefully) see Ashleigh win the crown.
