Sasha Moneé DeWitt is a thoughtful and purpose-driven young woman set to graduate in June 2028. A proud new resident of Savannah, she has quickly connected with the city’s vibrant culture and deep history—especially the meaning of Juneteenth as a celebration of freedom, faith, and the unbreakable resilience of the Black community.
Educated through a personalized, self-directed learning program, Sasha has developed independence, discipline, and a strong sense of curiosity. This approach has empowered her to explore history, culture, and identity beyond the classroom—strengthening her confidence, voice, and purpose as a young Black girl growing into leadership.
Sasha’s dream of becoming Miss Savannah Juneteenth is rooted in her desire to embody the spirit of Juneteenth itself—honoring the past while celebrating the strength, beauty, and brilliance of Black womanhood today. To her, Black girl history is a legacy of perseverance and power, and being a Black girl now means standing tall in that legacy, leading with faith, and inspiring change through action.
Through the Miss Savannah Juneteenth Scholarship, Sasha hopes to continue her education and expand her impact as a young leader. With grace and intention, she is committed to representing Savannah with pride—uplifting other young women, celebrating Black excellence, and carrying the spirit of Juneteenth forward into a future built on unity, purpose, and progress.
