Daughters of the soil, look what I found?😍 Story behind this photo is that I was walking to the rest room after a @smiletrain presentation during competition week. When I looked around I noticed that the people who were walking around me all happened to be my African Queen sisters. I said, wait a minute now! The ancestors are definitely here so this photo is happening right now đŸ€ŁđŸ˜. Then I asked all of them if we can please take a photo and there it was❀ #Memories #UniverseUnited

Since 2016, the Miss Universe Organization supports an international children’s charity, Smile Train, to help raise awareness of the issues faced by children living with untreated cleft lip and palate in the developing countries.

Tunzi and Miss USA 2019 Chelsie Kryst held a live virtual card-making activity for cleft patients from Smile Train amid the  coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.

The two beauty queens went live on Miss Universe's  Instagram page on April 13 at 23:00.
