Ex-Miss Tanzania and model Millen Magese has been awarded BET International‘s 1st ever Global Good recipient.
According to BET, this award is to acknowledge the humanitarian efforts of global personalities and celebrities in communities around the world.
The model received the award yesterday, at the DC BET studio, for her hard work and courage.
On receiving the award, Millen took to her Instagram page thanking her supporters.
“As the time draws closer, memories of the struggle with Endometriosis come flooding in. There has been many times where I questioned why I had to go through such pain. I kept my silence for so long, ashamed of what might be said. Endometriosis is so misunderstood on many levels. After speaking out, many times I wanted to stop and go back into hiding, but I had already set an example I couldn’t retract. Today I stand tall on the shoulders of that decision and I thank each and every one who has supported me and my journey. Special thanks to @bet_intl for honoring me with the Global Good Award. Our voice has been heard.”
