Hi everyone!

My name is Agnes Kiese, and I am honored to represent the model community as I compete for Miss Universe Canada 2025.

Throughout my own seven-year journey as a model, I have witnessed the challenges, pressures, and injustices that models often face, feeling unseen, unheard, and undervalued.

In facts, according to a 2021 study by Model Alliance, over 60% of models reported feeling unsafe or pressured in their work environment.

This is why I am deeply committed to creating change: by empowering models to believe in their worth, educating them on the realities of the industry, and advocating for a healthier, more respectful environment for all.

Preparing for Miss Universe Canada comes with significant costs, including my evening gown, wardrobe, coaching classes, travel expenses, and more.

I am reaching out for your support to help me cover these expenses and allow me to focus fully on preparing to represent with excellence, grace, and heart.

Every contribution, big or small, will not just help me pursue a dream — it will help amplify this message:

Every model deserves to be seen, heard, and valued.

Thank you so much for believing in me and for being part of this exciting journey. Your support means the world!

With love,

Agnes Kiese
