Kgomotso Molefe, a 28-year-old South African woman has won a global competition in Lisbon, Portugal, thanks to her passion, perseverance, and ability to break down barriers.
She has represented South Africa at the Best of Belron Competition and is bringing home the Award of Best Repair Technician.
Her path began as a participant in a young professional development programme and concluded in her being named the best auto glass repair technician in an international competition.
I am incredibly honoured and proud to have represented South Africa and most importantly, represented an ordinary township child to show them that everything is possible if you persevere.
Growing up in the dusty streets of Garankuwa, I never even thought I would be flying to Europe, let alone win a prestigious title. Being in an aeroplane for the first time in my life, it was both scary and intimidating, she said.
