Mashua to join board of directors

Mahlatse Mashua will join the Kolisi Foundation's board of directors.

Mashua had led the foundation since its inception. “It has been such an honour to lead the Kolisi Foundation in its first two years of life. From early mornings offloading truckloads of relief grocery distributions in rural Eastern Cape during the Covid lockdown, to establishing an exceptional team, policies, procedures and partnerships to sustain the foundation going forward, I am filled with gratitude for the privilege of guiding the organisation through its infancy to where it is today.

"I am excited about Rachel stepping into this role and taking the foundation to new depths and to new heights. Rachel brings energy, vision and a strong bias to action to the role. She embodies so many of the Kolisi Foundation’s values,” shared Mahlatse.
