Thembi Kgatlana's foundation donates books
Kgatlana, who's still recovering from an injury sustained during Banyana's successful WAFCON run, took time to donate her Rebel Girls story to primary schools in Mohlakeng.
The story details how a young Kgatlana, who grew up in Mohlakeng, fell in love with the beautiful game in an environment where girls didn't play football.
Kgatlana's foundation shared a host of images on Instagram to showcase the learners with the books and the Banyana star addressing the one school in a classroom, and the other on a multipurpose court.

The Racing Louisville baller also donated an old Bafana jersey to Mohlakano Primary School, the same school that her foundation donates school shoes to in 2020.
"The future of each country lies in the power of its youth. Ours is to inspire and set examples that will help the kids reach their full potential," says Kgatlana's foundation on IG.
