State Organizations are invited to sponsor a $500 contestant breakfast and enjoy a morning meal during competition week with all of our exceptional contestants.
Up to two states each day are able to participate in this wonderful opportunity. Days are available on a first-come, first-served basis. The organization can then identify two individuals to represent them at the breakfast. This can be members of the state staff, board and/or family members.
This is a great way to support MAOTeen, your state representative and have some good food to start your day!
If you’d like to join as a breakfast sponsor, please email kristin@maoteen.org today!

Great reviews of mixed quality of films, but fun just the same!
