Milwaukee, WI 53202

As 2025 comes to a close, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to our sponsors, the Milwaukee community, and the families and friends of our debutantes for their incredible support of the Pauline Redmond Coggs Foundation, Incorporated (PRCF) and our 51st Anniversary Debutante Cotillion, presented by PRCF in partnership with Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated® – Epsilon Kappa Omega Chapter.

On Saturday, November 29, at The Pfister Hotel, nearly 650 guests braved a winter storm to celebrate 25 extraordinary young women as they made their official debut to society.

This year’s theme, “The Power of Rising: Bold, Brilliant, and Beautiful,” was beautifully embodied by every debutante, escort, junior hostess, and guest in attendance.

Under the leadership of Chairman: Amandla Gales, Co-Chairmen: Jennifer Harris & Bianca Willingham, and President Isioma Nwabuzor, Esq., the program emphasized leadership, service, and meaningful community impact.

We are incredibly proud of each debutante and inspired by the legacy they will continue to build. It is with immense joy and pride that we present the 2025 PRCF Debutante Class.

We’d also like to extend a special congratulations to our 2025 Royal Court :

• Miss Debutante: Debutante Mariah Clarke

• 1st Runner-Up: Debutante Sydney Norman

• 2nd Runner-Up: Debutante Brinya Baker

• 3rd Runner-Up: Debutante Gianna Cooks
