Last night I not only received the Rising Star Award from Face Africa but I also received the Legislative Resolution from the New York State Senator Kevin Parker in recognition of my work with Youth Development in KZN, my foundation The LightHouse that assists young people suffering from Depression, Anxiety and Suicide as well as my advocacy in highlighting the plight of our displaced brothers and sisters who are refugees. . Thank you @sarankjones for inspiring so many of us to do more for our continent, to the #WASHGala @face.africa committee, we never do the work that we do for recognition but I THANK YOU DEEPLY for acknowledging my small efforts. To my big sister @wifeofmro from the very first day that we met and @khanyidhlomo brought you into my life, we have been inseparable and you have truly been a necessary light that continues to give my heart JOY! Thank you for everything. ?❤️??
