Currently touring India, Miss World Chairman Julia Morley and Miss World Yu Wenxia paid an important visit the Muktangan today, an NGO providing critical educational support for economically deprived children in the community.
Vanya Mishra (India 2012) spends considerable time working with Muktangan, and her work in the run up to Miss World 2012 won her the Beauty with a Purpose award at the final in August. Today was the presentation of $10,000 to Muktangan, because of Vanya’s hardwork. The winner of Beauty with a Purpose each year receives this prize for the causes they worked with, a vital boost to funds that go towards helping some of the world’s most needy.
Today was also a time for sharing stories, meeting new people and learning about other people’s lives. Miss World Chairman Julia Morley talked of the importance of organisations such as Muktangan, and how they can bring about real and lasting change for those in their care, creating a brighter future, through love and support. The children of Muktangan had the pleasure of meeting their second Miss World too, having previously been visited by Miss World 2011 Ivian Sarcos.
Vanya Mishra was at the celebration to witness the handing over of the cheque, to see how her efforts had truly brought positive change to Muktangan, and the promise of a brighter future.

So beautiful!!!~~~One of the most beautiful Miss World from Asia indeed!!!~
Gorgeous winner, she is elegance personified.
This award has a REAL meaning! They should keep it for good. Miss South Sudan is perfect for this cause! China is bully.
No, YOU are the bully. China won fair and square, she’s gorgeous. Miss South Sudan was not nearly as beautiful and the judges agree with me. So that makes you the bully. China is a superpower, get over it.
US has many beautiful women but i dont like the winner from MU, MW, MI

Well done vanya and miss world organisation. It is also officially confirmed that famina got miss universe franchise as expected.
no me gusta china como miss mundo
She actually looks much more beautiful now than when she won.
Agree. She grows on me more and more during her reign as MW. I finally get to see the real queen quality in her. No wonder MW chooses her.
Wenxia looks amazing…Vanya, on the other hand, looks like she just pushed an ox cart…
i still can’t believe she won. come on now julia.
She won because she deserved it. And do you think Olivia won Miss Universe fairly? I don’t hear you complaining, Amy.
