Women's Leadership Program
The Young African Women's leadership program is designed to provide a platform for women to embrace their leadership qualities as great humanitarians. Women are challenged to design a humanitarian project for a community in need and implement such micro projects from start to completion. This includes fund raising for the project, fact finding, implementation and evaluation. The Leadership Program has been very effective with delegates from the Miss Africa USA pageant where the young women in the pageant are able to make their pageant platforms a reality.
The program is not limited to Miss Africa delegates. Successful women are also invited to take advantage of their successes and their status as role models to inspire upcoming leaders through mentorship and leadership training programs. Please contact us to enrol in the Women's Leadership Program. |

| In 2007 Miss Africa USA Teizue Gayflor visited Liberia where she not only inspired school children to take their education seriously, she was also able to sponsor the supply of ceiling fans for congested classrooms to enable children learn in a more conducive environment. Miss Teizue visited several orphanages in Liberia and provided clothing for the children there. Miss Teizue returned from Liberia a very fulfilled young leader, having carried out a micro project for children in need, something which she had dreamed of for a long time. |
