At Zamukulungisa Foundation, which I co-founded to address socio-economic issues in South Africa, I spearhead fundraising and oversee projects. For the Hug a Child Winter Drive, I secured $4,300 in funding from Ford America to provide full school uniforms to 78 pupils.

I also supported girls through the Keep a Girl Safe Program, which supplied sanitary products to 600 girls over six months, and organized the KONGAMANO Sports Festival. Earlier, I supported teachers and learners at Mhlakulo Primary School and served customers at Amazon Development Center South Africa.
