Tyra Abok is no ordinary 11 year old! She’s the reigning Mini Little Miss Africa, and also the Little children Ambassador.

Tyra is a promising young talent who has made great strides in the fashion industry by bagging a couple of awards.
The Ruparelia Foundation has a strong position as a pioneer in supporting young talents in bettering their future, with the likes of Fresh Kid, Felister the superstar among others who have benefited from the Foundation’s support.
According to Nuwasasira Isabella from Ruparelia Foundation, Tyra Abok has an exceptional talent who poses an opportunity in future to become an ambassador to the Ruperalia Group both locally and internationally.
“It will also be a good opportunity for the Foundation to help her put Uganda on the map by supporting her Miss World fashion ventures as she goes to Dubai to represent Uganda in the Little Miss United World. It should be noted this would be a unique venture for the Ruparelia foundation and the first one of its kind,” said Isabella.
