"I know it is a very big target and that's why I wanted to engage the community and share my work of fundraising activities around the town, Sarah said.
Beauty with a Purpose was created in 1972. It is the fundraising heart of Miss World, and the children's charity, Variety, has been closely associated with Miss World for many years. More than US$1 billion has been donated to organisations in aid of disadvantaged children around the globe.

"I really have a very soft spot for disability. I think it comes from my passion around Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), a really strong working area for me. I'm really happy to advocate for that passion," Sarah said.
"Anything to do with disability is a soft spot for me because I do have an understanding for those people whom are vulnerable in our society who do need support and do need more help.
"Having suffered from PTSD, I do have an appreciation of people living with a disability. In my case, nobody could really pick that I was not well, and that's the thing about disability that I really appreciate and understand; it can be invisible."
Sarah relates to Armidale's Yazidis community and is seeking sponsors and help to organise her fundraising events. So, if you are able to help her in any way to reach her target you can email her at: sarahisaac@gmail.com
