Miss Teen Universe South Africa

Is a girl child empowerment programme through pageantry, arts and culture. The contestants/young ladies are offered an opportunity of grooming, a platform to grow socially, mentally as well as physically, learning various life skills and techniques, through our “Girl child empowerment Charity Gala”, workshops, community development programs, youth development programs and team building.

We shape young girls into representatives for our country South Africa, they become moguls and they use the platform as a way to empower and inspire the youth of South Africa, this journey allows these young girls the opportunity to grow into leaders and resilient women, they definitely know their worth, they are unapologetically themselves, they are unique and are game changers of note.

We serve as a cultural exchange programme, where we send our winners to represent our rainbow nation South Africa in the big 5 rated teen international pageants. We showcase creativity of South African designers not only on national level but also on an international platform, we partner with brands that are for youth empowerment, through brand marketing and exposure, our winners serves as ambassadors of different brands.
