Taija Singleton is honored to represent Atlanta Chapter 5 as a Queen Contest candidate and proudly supports the mission and legacy of the National Montford Point Marine Association. As the great-granddaughter of a Montford Point Marine, she carries a deep appreciation for the courage, resilience, and sacrifice of the men who helped change the course of history and open doors for future generations.

Taija enjoys serving others and staying involved in her community. In the Atlanta area, she has volunteered with organizations such as Hands On Atlanta, the Atlanta Community Food Bank, local church outreach programs, the YMCA’s World of Fun program, the UNCF Health Run/Walk, the National Black Arts Festival, and the Atlanta Mission’s My Sister’s House.

Her journey has also included participation in several youth leadership development experiences, including Legacy Academy, Counselors in Training, the YMCA Teen Leadership Program, Junior Achievement Fellows, and the National Black MBA Association’s Leaders of Tomorrow programs.

These experiences helped grow her passion for understanding people and communities, which led her to pursue a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Columbus State University. Guided by her faith, love for family, and commitment to community, she continues to look for ways to uplift and serve others.

Taija is grateful for the opportunity to participate in the Queen Contest fundraiser and support Atlanta Chapter 5’s efforts to raise awareness for its scholarship and community programs. She is especially thankful for the love, encouragement, and support she has received from her family, friends, and community along the way.
