Dr. Ida White
Dr. White’s journey began in New York City, where she was born and lived until she was 32 years old in 1967. At that point in her life, a voice or a sense of adventure encouraged her to take her family to a place where she knew hardly anyone: St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands. She spent 47 years blossoming in the Caribbean sun of St. Thomas.
Dr. White’s illustrious career saw her retire from the employment of the Virgin Islands Department of Education on December 31, 1994. Yet, retirement was just the beginning. She brought her wisdom and experience to FEMA and retired at age 83. Dr. White discovered within her many “I can do that talents” and entered senior beauty pageants for more than 20 years. She displayed her many talents, was featured in the award-winning film, Pretty Old, and won a Global Beauty Award in 2022,
Her commitment to community service is unwavering, from her active years in Rotary to her ongoing volunteer work in Kissimmee, Florida, where she currently lives. Dr. White’s dedication to fostering global harmony is evident in her award of service as a Peace Ambassador to the UN. Her story is one of resilience and one of God at the center.
