" Driven by a passion for advocacy and the love of being a voice for the voiceless, Millennium allows me the opportunity to explore different ways of helping out in the community and gaining experience. Not only that but honing my skills of public speaking, creativity as well as community work as well as gaining more skills from the fellowship is something I believe would be very detrimental to my future "

Millennium Fellowship Project: Botlhale Senatla

Advocating for education for all and combatting all the implications that come with receiving poor or no education, we as Botlhale Senatla visit schools and different organisations to give motivation, advice and guidance on academic life and education reaching out to a different number of students or people. We also give donations ranging from pens and pencils, to clothing, to anything else needed to help facilitate a proper learning experience, be it books, clothing, student accessories etc., bringing these donations along with us every time we have an official visit and make sure they are delivered to those who need them. Not only that but engaging in other topics of concern such as climate action, anti-discrimination and mental health, to name a few, is also what we are passionate in speaking on and engaging in activities to such topics for the betterment of our community.
