“I could not be more proud of our Miss Hinds Community College,” said Angela Hite, director of the pageant held each year at Hinds. “Charity did an excellent job of representing Hinds. To make the Top 10 at Miss Mississippi is an outstanding accomplishment, and she truly deserved that honor.”
She won Miss Hinds in 2019 but was unable to compete in Miss Mississippi, which was canceled in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. She was also a past Miss Hinds pageant winner, in 2017.
