In 2018, Torree established an organization called Change Matters.Torree learned about the concept of currency exchange rates at an early age and wanted to give back in a way that would fuel the economy of the area that was receiving the funds. Change Matters collects USD coins and sends those funds to countries overseas to assist students and families. Change Matters is currently serving individuals and families in Black River, Jamaica.
She also served as a peer mentor at Macedonia Baptist Church’s After School Program. This is where she discovered her passion for empowering the youth and those around her. This prompted her to continue her passion for service. During her time at North Carolina A&T State University, she was elected to serve as the 89th Miss North Carolina A&T State University. During her reign, she was able to push her platform of “Aggie Elementary: Rooted in History” to amplify the importance of advocacy, education, and legacy preservation at her HBCU.

As Miss Black Georgia, Torree promotes her platform “Open Doors: Unlocking Potential”. Her platform aims to provide and advocate for educational resources and exposure to developmental opportunities, with an emphasis on youth literacy proficiency. She believes in the power of empowerment and wants everyone to have access to the tools they need to be successful.
