Miss Nebraska Announces Partnership with TeamMates Mentoring

TeamMates Mentoring and the Miss Nebraska Organization are proud to team up in support of Mentoring and Literacy among Nebraska students. TeamMates Mentoring was co-founded by Dr. Tom Osborne and his wife Nancy in 1991 and since then more than 49,000 matches have been made. TeamMates mission is to impact the world by inspiring students to reach their full potential through mentoring. TeamMates Mentoring currently supports nearly 10,000 matches in a five-state area (Nebraska, Kansas, Iowa, South Dakota and Wyoming).

Since 1937, the Miss Nebraska Scholarship Program has empowered young women to achieve their personal and professional goals. Miss Nebraska offers young women a forum to express their opinions, develop their talents, and showcase leadership and intelligence. Raechel Warren (Miss Douglas County) was crowned Miss Nebraska and Janae Harris (Miss Lincoln’s Teen) was crowned Miss Nebraska’s Teen at the culmination of the annual Scholarship Competition in North Platte on June 8th and will compete for the title of Miss America 2025 and Miss America’s Teen 2025. TeamMates Mentoring is launching a Speakers Bureau that will include speakers from the Miss Nebraska Organization.

TeamMates Mentoring CEO DeMoine Adams said, “We are proud to partner with the Miss Nebraska Organization. TeamMates Mentoring and Miss Nebraska both support education, mentoring, leadership and literacy, and we believe this is a great opportunity to support Nebraska youth.”

Megan Doughty, Co-Executive Director for the Miss Nebraska Organization, said. “TeamMates is an invaluable resource to all who are involved, including mentors, mentees and our state. The alignment of the Miss Nebraska Organization with the TeamMates program could not be a better match as both organizations foster growth and development through mentoring.” Miss Nebraska Raechel Warren said, “When I learned that TeamMates and Miss Nebraska would be working together to support Nebraska students statewide, I was beyond excited. My service initiative, “Passion to Purpose,” perfectly aligns with the mission of TeamMates “to inspire students through mentoring.” Corporations, TeamMates Chapters and educational institutions can book Miss Nebraska, andother speakers on behalf of TeamMates at TeamMates.org or through the Miss Nebraska Organization.
