Those who know me know that I hold applying oneself academically and sports-all very close to my heart. So this year I would like to do something for three girls who have excelled in these spaces. I have three dresses that have marked important moments in my career and I would like to gift them to these girls. You can either submit yourself or nominate someone else if you know that they do not have access to social media. When I wore this dress it was my first time in Kenya for MTV Shuga DS Premiere. What a beautiful and magical night! The work that MTV Shuga does globally to educate and bring change is inspiring and one day I only hope to make an impact in the world. In the spirit of giving I will be giving away this dress to a lucky matriculant for their matric dance. You need to demonstrate that you have excelled in SPORTS this year in order to qualify. • Please send your entry to info@lemuelmanagement.co.za • Please note that we will not be responding to DMs. • Only entries sent to the email listed above will be considered.
