OUR Vision

It is our vision to inspire all black young girls, teens and woman, with the hope of assisting and encouraging them to become better public speakers, embracing their diversity, understanding their self-worth, and gain poise. We believe it is important for these young girls to learn and understand that beauty resides within them. One of our keys goals is to strengthen our sisterhood and empower these individuals freeing them from mental health, social struggles related to their differences. By doing so, we aim to reduce anxiety, depression and insecurities, encouraging them to become productive citizens and future leaders, effectively preparing them for success in all their future endeavors.

OUR MISSION

Miss Juneteenth MN State Pageant is a 501(C)3 non-profit community organization. Our primary focus and objective are to create a platform that will provide services and resources and expose our young black girls, teens and adults to educational, networking, and career opportunities, including financial literacy and healthy lifestyle. In addition, they will also have opportunities to receive scholarships, awards, gifts, and other prizes, along with participation in several workshops, that will provide tools to enhance self-esteem, confidence, and to overcome obstacles. One of the purposes of Miss Juneteenth Minnesota State Pageant is to help black females rediscover their history and heritage by educating them about the birth of and purpose of Juneteenth, and why it's so important to us. We want to safely open doors for our younger generation for their gifts and talents to be exposed in a pageant setting.
