Patrice St. Jean's Scholarship Fundraiser!

Hi everyone! My name is Patrice St. Jean, and I am sophomore at the University of Missouri, where I'm majoring in Journalism and Sociology with a minor in Black Studies.

Outside of studies, I have dedicated this year to stepping outside my comfort zone by trying new activities! With this said, I am thrilled to announce that I am participating in the 2025 Alpha Phi Alpa Fraternity Incorporated, Zeta Alpha Chapter Miss Black and Gold Scholarship Pageant! This event is purposed to spotlight young women's poise, intelligence and academic excellence, as the fraternity is providing contestants scholarships to assist with scholastic financial obligations.

I’m aiming to raise $1,200 by Tuesday, March 18th for the fundraising portion of the pageant, which will go directly toward the scholarship prizes for the winning participants. I’m excited to take on this challenge and would be so grateful for any contribution, no matter how big or small!

If you're unable to donate, no worries at all—sharing this with others would also mean the world to me.

Thank you for your support!

Patrice St. Jean
