For years Townsville's beauty claim to fame is that we're the hometown of the stunning, Rachael Finch. 

Rach took home the 'People's Choice Award' for the 2006 Miss Teen Australia comp and finished as 3rd runner-up at Miss Universe 2009, but there's a new stunner who is ready to steal the crown. 

Meet Townsville teenager, Makalah Jeffery. 

The local model is on the journey to being crowed Miss World Australia and it's pretty obvious why! 

Makalah is getting ready to pack her bags for the Miss World Australia comp Queensland finals on Sunday June 23 on the Gold Coast. 

Judges won't just be looking at external beauty, but how charitable the ladies are too, with a fundraising component in the competition.

If you'd like to donate to Makalah's fundraising for Variety, visit this website

"I'm inspired by the work that Variety The Children's Charity do, so I wanted to raise money for them as part of my participation in Miss World Australia 2019. Please help me help them by giving whatever you can using the 'Give Now' button," Makalah wrote on her fundraising page. 

We wish Makalah lots of luck in getting through the Queensland finals!!
