Happiness
Magese AKA Milen, has recently started a foundation to give awareness to
help women suffering with Endometriosis, she also has been suffering
from the same illness.
Millen
Happiness Magese is a world-renown fashion model and humble humanitarian.
When she’s not rocking the runways in Europe, the United States, Asia and
Africa, the former Miss Tanzania can often be found lending her time, talents,
and high energy to making a difference in the lives of those who are less
fortunate through her significant contributions to charities such as the
Tanzania Education Trust, African Rainforest Conservancy, and the MacDella
Cooper Foundation.As a model, Ms. Magese is currently signed with Ford Models
in NY, NY and Ice Model Management in Johannesburg, South Africa
In
addition to her work in print, Ms. Magese has appeared on CNN and acted in
Television commercials for big brands such as Coke Light, JC Le Roux, Allan
Grey, Guinness Milk Stout, Edgars, and Vodacom. Her appearance on “Deal or No
Deal” sealed her popularity around Africa.
Endometriosis
is a condition where endometrial tissue is found outside the uterus. It is
‘trapped’ in the pelvic area and lower tummy (abdomen) and, rarely, in other
areas in the body.The endometrium is the tissue that lines the inside of the
womb (uterus).Endometriosis is typically seen during the reproductive years; it
has been estimated that endometriosis occurs in roughly 6–10% of women.
There is
no cure for endometriosis, but it can be treated in a variety of ways,
including pain medication, hormonal treatments, and surgery.Symptoms of
endometriosis are pain and infertility. The pain often is worse with the
menstrual cycle and is the most common cause of secondary dysmenorrhea.
Endometriosis was first identified by Baron Carl von Rokitansky in 1860.
But
for all of her professional talent and resulting accomplishments, helping
others has always been what Millen Happiness Magese loves to do the most. This
is strikingly evident throughout her career as she has involved herself deeply
with various charities all over the world. That is why she inspires me, she
goes all the way and in every way to simply help in every way she can.
Whether
in the front of the camera, behind the camera or next to the camera, Ms. Magese
proves that true beauty comes from the inside and has much more to do with
serving others than being in the limelight. While all the attention is
flattering, Ms. Magese believes the runway should be used as a platform to do
good in the world.
Millen
Magese mission is to provide assistance to charitable organizations whose work
is specifically focused in Tanzania, especially causes that benefit women,
children, and primary education. Her long-term plan is to build schools for
children in rural areas as she believes a good education is a key to life.
