In the question and answer portion where the candidates were given 30 seconds to tell the judges why they deserve the crown, Young expressed her belief in a “core value of humanity” which guides people’s actions.
She hopes to use this to show others how they may contribute to society. For the “Beauty with a Purpose” challenge, Megan chose to extend aid to flood victims in the Philippines.
