In a night filled with inspiration and recognition, Her Excellency, Ambassador Dr. Queennak, was honored as the Global Peace Ambassador at the prestigious Global Peace Summit. This accolade celebrates her relentless dedication to humanitarian efforts and her impactful contributions to global peace initiatives.

Dr. Queennak is not only a distinguished ambassador but also holds the title of the Queen of Embrix from 2011-2012 and has been recognized as one of the 100 most influential youth in Sierra Leone. Her multifaceted career spans across various domains, including her talents as a contemporary painter, Hollywood Afrobeat artist, fashion designer, and television personality known for her shows “Queennak Lifestyle” and “A Queen In Beverly Hills.”

As the CEO and founder of Queennak Foundation Inc. and Queennak Luxury LLC, her commitment to philanthropy is evident. In 2021, she organized her first album concert titled “What’a Guan,” which honored the victims of the September 11 incident in New York. This event brought together government officials, celebrities, and media personalities, showcasing her ability to unite diverse groups for a common cause. In September 2024, she brought together celebrities, government officials, media personalities, and businesses to Hollywood, Beverly Hills, downtown Los Angeles, and Crenshaw to launch her second album titled “To God,” themed “No To Drug Abuse.” This initiative aimed to raise funds and help drug abuse victims in West Africa while promoting peace, unity, cultural exchange, government affairs, entertainment, and international investment and trade.

Dr. Queennak’s humanitarian work extends beyond entertainment and art. During the Ebola crisis, she raised $300,000, donating significant amounts to Sierra Leone, Guinea, and Liberia. She also contributed approximately $10,000 to the acting ambassador of Sierra Leone to assist the First Lady, Madam Sia Koroma, in aiding children affected by the outbreak. Following the mudslide in Sierra Leone, she donated food and necessities valued at over $20,000 to help the victims. During the flooding, she collaborated with her Royal Club, the Embrix Royal Club, to provide over $30,000 worth of food and essentials at the national stadium.

Her charitable efforts are not confined to Africa; she has donated thousands to Covenant House in the United States, as well as to Dorcas House in Arkansas and various organizations in New York. Furthermore, Dr. Queennak and her team organized a Europe tour, donating to shelters in Portugal.

When the newly elected president and his wife launched the free education program in Sierra Leone, Dr. Queennak raised and donated 50,000,000 Leones to First Lady Fatima Maada Bio to support her and President Julius Maada Bio’s projects for the country.

During her acceptance speech for the Global Peace Ambassador award, Dr. Queennak invited all her African and American families and friends to join her, emphasizing that she could not achieve such recognition without their support. Princess Monalisa Okojie, a Princess from Nigeria, spoke warmly of Dr. Queennak just before she received the award. "Very few words about this amazing Queennak," she said. "She is permanently smiling and she wants to help the entire world. She doesn’t take help herself; she wants to take care of everybody else. So today, I am so happy that she’s being recognized. She’s always recognizing people; she’s just the most amazing woman that I know. So I’m so grateful that I have to do this introduction for you. God bless you, my friend and my sister."

In her heartfelt moment of gratitude, Dr. Queennak thanked Madam Sandra for putting together such an amazing event and expressed her appreciation to Dr. K. A. Paul for his initiative and for coming to celebrate peace with them in Beverly Hills. She preached about the importance of peace and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) of the United Nations, encouraging everyone to follow and support one another in their endeavors.

Dr. Queennak also thanked the guests and recognized several influential individuals who joined her on stage. She acknowledged B. David Levine, Kim Fitzgerald Starzyk, Mr. George Lewis from Sierra Leone Broadcasting Television, Dr. Natasha, and Mr. Allen Shay, who are renowned television presenters that have covered numerous red carpets and major award shows in Hollywood and Beverly Hills. She also recognized Mr. Nfagie Koroma, the president of the Beverly Hills Sierra Leone Friendship Group, and Ashinee Reynolds, the former Vice President of Advocacy for the United Nations Association Los Angeles, highlighting their significant contributions to the community and their support for her mission.
