Charmaine Terblanche was crowned first princess in the Mrs Gauteng pageant on 15 August at the Rivonia Boulevard.
Charmaine comes from a Randfontein family – her father and grandfather grew up in Randfontein and Finsbury.
Last year Charmaine Claassen Terblanche was crowned second princess, also in the Mrs Gauteng category.
Mrs Gauteng has surpassed expectations with its success, having a very positive impact on the unprivileged in the community. The organisation has been a sponsor of the St Laurence’s Children Home in Roodepoort.
I entered Mrs Gauteng knowing that I want to make a difference in the community. I am proud to say that I will attempt to use my titles as second runner-up 2014 and first runner-up 2015 in the Mrs Gauteng category to make a difference in our community. There is a quote that says ‘It takes people with a helping hand to raise and change children’s lives’, ” Charmaine said. She lives by this quote.
