Halle Bailey, a Grammy-nominated singer and songwriter, recently revealed her “Angel Scholarship” to encourage Black women to pursue careers in the performing arts. The 23-year-old “The Little Mermaid” star shared information about this new project on social media on Thursday (Sept. 27), saying that four young ladies would get $10,000 awards to help with their performing arts studies.

She expressed her gratitude in her post, saying, “Thank you for supporting #angel and helping to fulfill the dreams of these incredibly talented young ladies.” She also encouraged her supporters to “stay tuned” for more updates.

The “Angel Scholarship” was established in honor of Bailey’s debut solo record of the same name, “Angel.” This piano and harp-led ballad delves into Bailey’s personal experiences as a Black woman in the public eye.
