A GLOBAL VISION

A Quality Education for All.

We envision a world where every girl of color has equitable access to a quality education, empowering her to rise, lead, and inspire transformative change in her community and around the world.

Gifted Scholars Leadership Program believed in my educational endeavors and post-secondary dreams. This program provided a system of support throughout my college career.

✨Why Juneteenth Matters—
for Us All 🤎✨ — June 19, 1865. More than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation, freedom finally reached the last enslaved Black people in Galveston, Texas. Juneteenth isn’t just Black history—it’s American history.

🎉 We honor our ancestors. 💡 We educate our communities. 💪🏾 We continue the fight for equality.
