MORE ABOUT THE FOUNDATION
According to SowetanLIVE, as a youngster, Makazole Mapimpi also witnessed his loved ones being subjected to abuse. He’s now reportedly determined to make a change through his foundation.
“Growing up in the rural areas, I had my sister and two cousins. I was the only male at home and I did not have the strength to stand up for my sisters. It was then that I saw it was not right (GBV), but it was something common in the area… I’m grown now and I have a platform to send a message across the board. I have a voice now. It’s not only about telling young boys that this is not right but everyone in our society,” the Springbok player was quoted as saying.
