titleholders under the direction of Kazz Forbes/Saint George Fashion House, in
partnership with the Turks and Caicos
Tourist Board.
MTCUBO’s goal is to advance and support women of the
Turks and Caicos Islands while promoting passion for pageantry with a purpose.
By creating an environment that is conducive for learning through training,
exploring, researching and discovering myriad experiences, contestants and
titleholders are challenged to bring out their personal best.
The exhilarating journey
to coronation is designed to encourage the pursuit of purpose, promote
discipline, and support the strengthening of character. Each experience, be it
