Reigning queen Mahlako Machaba and second princess Tlou Hlako guided the semi-finalists as they were to have discussions with the children from the centre.
“The toiletry drive was my main project for the year and we asked the semi-finalists to be a part of it.
“We divided the children into groups to discuss the social ills affecting our communities with the 2022 semi-finalists,” said Machaba.
Machaba said Mandela Day reminded her that she does not have to be rich to give back to the community as she has always given back through her acts of service.
