Miss Intercontinental South Africa Semifinalist Wande set to bring change and empowering communities

Updated: Jun 19, 2023


Wande Siswana has emerged as one of the semifinalists in the highly anticipated Miss

Intercontinental South Africa pageant. The Miss Intercontinental South Africa platform

speaks to the power of beauty and Wande Siswana aims to use this platform to

showcase her unwavering passion for human welfare. Her commitment to advocating

for the safety, visibility, and empowerment of every individual has driven her to take

immediate action.


With the aim of inspiring others to actively address the injustices prevailing in our

country, Wande firmly believes in the power of accountability. She emphasizes that by

taking responsibility for our actions and prioritizing the well-being of others, we can

collectively drive meaningful change and create a better South Africa.


Under her campaign, #GracedtogiveSA, Wande has organized two impactful charity

drives, focusing on communities close to her heart. These initiatives aim to make a

positive and lasting difference in the lives of those who need it most.


Wande Siswana's first initiative involved organizing a drive to donate sanitary pads.

Every month, one out of every four female students who menstruate misses school due

to a lack of access to menstrual hygiene products and support. The issue of period

poverty is increasingly affecting our nation. As part of Youth Day 2023, In collaboration

with InspHired Recruitment Solutions and Thandokhulu High School, Wande Siswana

has assisted the 670 young girls a by giving out over 3000 sanitary pads


Her second initiative focuses on donating clothing to U-turn, an organization that

provides a comprehensive rehabilitation program for the homeless, helping them


transition from the streets to employment. Wande's goal is not only to offer handouts to

the homeless but to provide them with a hand up.


Together, let us support Wande Siswana and her inspiring efforts as she continues to

empower communities and strive for positive change.
