“My way forward is to try raise money though sponsors, in support of the SA Teen Scholarship Fund. I want to help teenagers and the children of this country to be aware of and to stop bullying and other anti-social influences.”

Even if she doesn’t win, Lehlogonolo says she will continue empowering not just women, but the youth. “My biggest focus has been on bullying but I’m hoping to address other issues in the future. All the money we raise is to support the SA Teen Scholarship Fund. This scholarship fund aims to help children out there that can not afford to go to school and need assistance. ”

She says that she is looking for sponsorship by paying visits to businesses and she and the other two finalists sold cupcakes.

“I would like to thank my mom and dad for their continued support as well as the lovely judges and team of the SA Teen Ambassador, my Ace family and to everyone that voted.”
