Welcome and thank you for your interest in the Uniquia Manigault - Performing Arts Scholarship!
The Uniquia Manigault - Performing Arts Scholarship is dedicated to providing educational assistance in
Modeling, Acting, Poetry/Writing and Hair Braiding. There are so many children that are left at home in the evenings and summers while their parents work; most actually come from a household where there is only one parent. The majority of the households are without fathers. Mothers are forced to go to work to provide for their families, but unfortunately the kids are at home by themselves, getting into trouble and/or not eating healthy meals. There are many more children that need positive mentors and guidance in their lives. Helping them to feel good about themselves and building self-confidence is a great experience to offer them. These services will enable children to one day become adult catalysts in their community and one day be in position to give back. This scholarship is designed specifically for African American girls. Black Girl Beauty Foundation partners with Black Girl Beauty Performing Arts School to provide these special training sessions.  Uniquia Manigault has been in the industry for over 20 years. She started at 4 years old. She holds a BA in Theatre Arts from Clark Atlanta University and she's CEO of Black Girl Beauty Performing Arts School. Uniquia is a professional model, actress, poet, author, motivational speaker, teacher, host, entertainer, comedian and hair braider. It's her pleasure to partner with Black Girl Beauty Foundation to offer her prestigious scholarship to 20 black girls in 2022 for the Summer Initiative Program and 20 black girls for the After-School Program in 2022.
