On our second day of 12 Days of Joy, Mbalenhle Mtshali sent us a request to assist his partner, Sthandeni Ndlovu with her tuition fees.

Sthandeni is a student at the Rosebank College and is struggling to get a bursary or funding towards her Bachelor of Education studies. Both her partner and mother try to assist where they can, but they are also struggling financially. Sthandeni has two years left to complete her studies. She was previously forced to drop out of her studies at the North-West University due to financial constraints.

Mbalenhle fears that Sthandeni might not recover if she had to drop out again.

LottoStar and 947 contributed a total of R49,880 towards Sthandeni’s outstanding tuition fees from 2020 and for her full year’s tuition in 2021.
