By Caroline Naude | African Angels Trustee
Lou Billett, the founder of African Angels, has been selected as a finalist in the 2019 East London Business Women's Association 'Business Woman of the Year Awards'. Lou is one of 3 finalists in the Social Entrepreneur category, and the will be announced at the annual awards gala dinner on Saturday 27th July.
Lou started African Angels in 2008, to disrupt the inequality that exists in South Africa, to access quality education, between those who can afford it, and those who cannot and establishing the African Angels Independent School in 2012 made this vision very real.
Lou is a particularly tenacious person, and as we all know education is a long term commitment. Lou’s tenaciousness will see African Angels go from strength to strength, seeing more children able to break out of the cycle of poverty they were born into by receiving a quality education.
African Angels continues to grow because of your support. Changing lives and restoring hope to children in Chintsa would not be possible without you as part of our Global Family.
Thank you.
