All participants in the Today’s Girl Youth Organization are required to complete 8 hours of community service work each year and Today’s Girl is a certifying organization for the President’s Volunteer Service Award. Girls who perform at least 50 hours of community service activity are awarded the bronze award, and a silver and gold award is also available at various hour levels. Over 40,000 volunteer hours were logged by Today’s Girls over the last 6 years. Girls who participate in the local preliminary will be eligible to attend the Texas State Today’s Girl Finals, to be held June 8-12 at the Southfork Hotel in Plano. The national finals will be held in late July.

Girls between the ages of 0 and 18 are invited to compete in six different age divisions. The age divisions include Today’s Baby (0-3), Today’s Doll (4-6), Today’s Miss (7-9), Today’s Junior (10-12), Today’s Teen (13-15), and Today’s Girl (16-18). Girls compete in party dress/evening gown, casual wear, interview, beauty, and talent, not to exceed three minutes. The younger age divisions through age 6 are not required to present a talent. Participants can enter the beauty competition only if they have not yet developed a performance talent.

Today’s Girl is a youth program for young ladies that provide guidance for the development of tomorrow’s leaders. Our goal is to offer a positive environment which allows girls to develop poise, self-confidence and character. The Today’s Girl Organization encourages a familial atmosphere and our participants are active in their communities, perform at various events and enjoy making new friends. Today’s Girl is a scholarship-based program which encourages the development of talent, academic achievement, and awareness of the need to improve their social environment through community service. Over $5,000 in educational scholarships were awarded last year.
