About Us
The Rice Street Royalty is a nonprofit organization that empowers women through community leadership. The Rice Street Royalty’s program develops leadership skills such as independence, professional presentation, and confidence through volunteering, networking, and mentorship. We operate by a board and several committees of volunteers, who are alumni of the program. Our alumni embody a sisterhood, in which we help continue the legacy by supporting the women in the program.
Our Mission
Our mission is to empower women through community leadership.
Our Vision
We pursue our mission statement by:
-volunteering in the Rice Street community,
-networking with other community ambassadors,
-providing opportunities for professional development and mentorship from the Rice Street Royalty Alumni, and
-representing the diverse and unique Rice Street community.
We offer a two month candidate experience, from which three individuals are then selected as Queen and Princesses to represent the Rice Street community for a year of service. The Rice Street Royalty candidate experience includes participating in Rice Street Community events such as Safe Summer Nights, Family Day and more. Candidates further develop their leadership skills by public speaking at events, networking with neighboring ambassador programs, and volunteering in the community. The newly selected Queen and Princesses will fulfill their year of service and have gained empowerment through community leadership.
