My Philanthropic work 
over The Years

Impact Through Action

As an engineering student, I believe that the role of an engineer goes beyond solving technical problems—it extends to uplifting communities and driving meaningful change. For me, philanthropy is rooted in giving my time and skills where they can make a difference. Volunteering offers a way to apply my problem-solving mindset outside the classroom, whether by mentoring, supporting community projects, or simply being present where help is needed. I see each act of service as an opportunity to contribute to a more inclusive and sustainable future. My goal is not only to design systems and technologies but also to help build a society where compassion and innovation go hand in hand

The Big Brother Mentorship Programme is focused on guiding and empowering younger students through structured mentorship, academic support, and personal growth initiatives. As a mentor, I will play an active role in providing advice, encouragement, and resources to help mentees navigate both academic challenges and personal development.

The initiative was born out of a collaboration of LESA and Vodacom Lesotho This initiative involves providing mentorship, practical assistance with application processes, and sharing insights on adjusting to new environments. Through this project, we aimed to bridge gaps in access to information for lesotho students

LESA COMMITTEE MEMBER AND MENTOR

As a member of the UCT student association Lesotho Students Association (LeSA) - Committee, I contributed to the planning and execution of cultural, social, and academic initiatives that support the student community. My role also included mentoring younger members, offering guidance on academic matters, and fostering a sense of belonging among students. This experience strengthened my leadership, teamwork, and organizational skills while deepening my connection to the community.

UN75
2021


 

In 2021, I participated in the UN75 global initiative, which brought together young people from around the world to engage in meaningful discussions about the future we want to build collectively. This involvement allowed me to contribute ideas on sustainability, peace, and inclusive development while collaborating with diverse voices. It was a valuable opportunity to broaden my worldview and engage in shaping conversations about international cooperation.
