The Crown Journey
Discover the story behind Miss Africa America and what makes our pageant a transformative experience
A Vision Born from Passion
Miss Africa America was founded by Oumie Garba Fox with a powerful vision: to create a platform that celebrates African heritage while empowering women to become leaders in their communities.
What started as a dream to unite African diaspora women across America has grown into a prestigious pageant that represents 54 nations and creates lasting impact through leadership, advocacy, and cultural celebration.
Today, Miss Africa America stands as a beacon of empowerment, giving voice to women who carry Africa's light across America.
