Miss Wisconsin Rapids Outstanding Teen Donates Items to Aspirus Riverview Family Birthplace

Thursday, June 22nd, 2023 -- 10:00 AM

Babies born at Aspirus Riverview Family Birthplace in Wisconsin Rapids are going home with a new book or toy, thanks to Ruby Marti, Miss Wisconsin Rapids Outstanding Teen.

Ruby organized a book and toy drive at local elementary schools and recently visited the birthplace to deliver what she collected. The project supports her social impact initiative, "Silence is NOT Golden: Early Language Matters," which promotes language and communication skills. The Outstanding Teen competition is for teens between 13 and 18 to earn scholarships and professional development within the Miss America Organization.

Ruby, who is about to begin her freshman year at Wisconsin Rapids Lincoln High School, travels to Oshkosh later this week to compete for the title of Miss Wisconsin Outstanding Teen.
