Empowering Nigeria's Next Generation Through Arts

Hello! My name is Oyemen Ehikhamhen, and I am the reigning Miss Diaspora Nigeria USA 2024. I am raising funds to support my reign so I can be a strong advocate for my platform: uplifting Nigerian creatives and empowering Nigerian youth through the performing arts. This mission is close to my heart, as I know the profound impact that creativity and self-expression can have on young people.

As Miss Diaspora Nigeria USA, my goal is to create programs that give Nigerian youth the confidence to dream BIG, explore their imaginations, and discover their true potential. I believe that the performing arts offer a unique way to foster confidence, leadership, and resilience in young people, preparing them to become the next generation of change-makers.

To achieve this, I have partnered with LEAP Africa , a youth-focused leadership development organization that shares my vision of an inclusive, thriving Nigeria built through innovative, ethical, and dynamic youth leadership. Together, we aim to create a supportive, creative environment for Nigerian youth, equipping them with the skills to think critically and act boldly.

How Your Support Will Help:

Funds raised will go toward creating these empowerment programs, hosting workshops, and sponsoring my attendance at events where I can represent and advocate for our mission. Your support will also help cover essential expenses related to my work as Miss Diaspora Nigeria USA, allowing me to build partnerships, inspire the community, and reach more young people.

The Nigerian youth are the future, and with the right resources, they can lead Nigeria toward a brighter tomorrow. Please join me in empowering the next generation of Nigerian leaders through the performing arts. Thank you for your support!
