Cape Town - Zandile Mawela is a living example that you can overcome anything if you are determined to succeed.
Her life-changing opportunity came when she was accepted into the Engen Maths and Science School in Cala when she was in Grade 10. Every Saturday morning for three years, Mawela attended the free supplementary maths, science and English classes offered by Engen. As the primary caregiver to her younger brother and a foster parent to her sister’s children, she has faced extremely tough times financially and emotionally over the past few years, often placing her own needs and life on hold.
Over the past few months, Mawela has been one of the many heroic health-care workers who has played a crucial role in the fight against the pandemic, working as a locum and saving lives in hospitals across the Western Cape.
