For a three year-old national beauty competition, Miss Global Philippines has started to find its niche in the country’s pageant landscape by being the only one of its kind that encourages single mothers to take part, aside from extending the age qualification to 28. These two unique features effectively widened its reach to all the potential candidates, including the ones who may have “overlooked” their chances of joining the likes of Bb. Pilipinas, Miss Philippines Earth and Miss World Philippines.
