Millen was honoured for her many Humanitarian efforts including recent work in Africa for Endometriosis awareness. Global Good is a BET International initiative highlighting the humanitarian efforts of global personalities and celebrities in communities around the world.

The inspiring models shares these words on her IG:

As the time draws closer, memories of the struggle with endometriosis come flooding in. There have been times where I questioned why I had to go through such pain. I kept my silence for so long, ashamed of what might be said. Endometriosis is so misunderstood on many levels. After speaking out, many times I wanted to stop and go back into hiding, but I had already set an example I couldn’t retract. Today I stand tall on the shoulders of that decision and I thank each and every one who has supported me and my journey. Special thanks to @bet_intl for honoring me with the Global Good Award. Our voice has been heard.
