Hello, my name is Rahma Athie I am half Senegalese and half Mauritanian. I am a student at University of Cincinnati pursuing my bachelors in communication with inspiration of becoming a social worker and public relations. I love playing sports, singing, dancing, and most importantly helping children. As an adventurous as aspiring young lady on the journey to greatness I remain humble yet outspoken with a strong sense of determination. I am a strong supporter of youth development and will continuously improve myself. I have been chosen as finalist to participate in Miss Africa USA pageant 2015 representing Mauritania and Africa as a nation. Miss Africa USA pageant is about empowering young beautiful women that wants to enlighten Africa. I know so many people think pageants is just about beauty but it's more than that, it's about coming together as Africans and helping those in need. I am participating in this pageant because I want to help orphan children's in Mauritania and Africa to have a better life and enjoy their fundamental rights.
The situation of children in Mauritania is far from satisfactory. These orphan children's are unable to enjoy the happiness and innocence of their childhood, due to poverty. With so many responsibilities on their little shoulders, they cannot grow or play without the risk of serious consequences that may follow. Poverty deprives children of their fundamental right to life. In addition it deprives them from educational opportunities. Education is human right which ought to be accessible to everyone, without any discrimination. All children must be able to go school and thereby benefit from the same opportunities to build a future. Additionally educational instruction must be equally gratuitous so that children from disadvantaged environment will be able to enjoy their right to an education. I am simply a girl who wants to be included and involved in helping the children in need.
Please join me. As I always say if you have the power to make someone happy, DO IT. The world needs more of that!!
I am also searching for sponsors/sponsorship if you would like to be part of this create journey with me please feel free to email me at (riimapeul@gmail.com)
