Sarah Persaud is a 19 year old student who is in the Concurrent Education Program at the University of Windsor for English Language and Literature. She is very passionate about education, and decided to go into teaching after a classroom placement. During this placement she was able to create learning plans to accommodate each students individual needs. She looks forward, with great excitement, to becoming a fully qualified teacher. She is an accomplished singer and has been taking vocal lessons for over 10 years. Sarah also writes poetry and enjoys reading. This is Sarah’s first pageant, however, she is used to performing publicly at festivals and concerts that benefit charities, such as the Canada Day festival in Amherstburg, and Christmas concerts for the elderly. Since starting University and becoming a contestant for the Miss Windsor pageant, Sarah has gained a great deal of confidence and made many meaningful connections. If Sarah were to win the title of Miss Windsor, she plans to spread kindness and her love of education in the community.

Sarah’s platform of choice is the Ronald McDonald Houses Charity (RMHC). Her family had to stay in a RMH when she was ill. Over 138,000 families are turned away from being able to stay in an RMH as a result of a lack of donations. Sarah wants to win the title of Miss Windsor to help raise awareness and help families in need of these donations and a place to stay. Sarah wants to continue keeping families close to their sick children, the same way RMHC did for her family.
