Miss Botswana 2022 Lesego Chombo has donated school uniform to Metsibotlhoko Primary school students in Letlhakeng as part of her Beauty With a Purpose (BWAP) project campaign.

Her public relations officer Tshepiso Solomon said Chombo in partnership with her employer Kebabonye Business Law would also host children, parents and the school as part of a development exercise.

Through her Beauty With a Purpose project, Chombo aims to equip parents with the skills and behavioural attributes which are necessary to raise their children in a conducive environment despite their limited means.

In Februarythis year, Chombo spent a day with children at Princess Marina Hospital’s commemoration of International Childhood cancer.

“I really met cool and strong little people, and I am really touched by their fighting spirit and their ability to hold on to joy while they fight against cancer,” she said.

As part of gaining scores to the Miss World Competition slated for May, the beauty queen also visited the Maothate Learning centre last month.

Her project she said was to bridge the gap between the environment that children in rural and poverty stricken homes grow up in versus the economically stable and urban homes.

Recently Botswana Tourism Organisation partnered with Miss Botswana to explore and appreciate the country’s tourist attractions in Kgalagadi and Gakhibane areas.

During the tour, she experienced the camel ride and interacted with Werda and Tsabong natives.

Miss Botswana’s four day tour also had many exciting moments such as quad ride and a view of the sunset at the Khawa Dunes. She also had the opportunity to visit Goo Moremi in Tswapong.

Chombo is set to fly to the United Arab Emirates in May where she will compete with other beauties for the Miss World 71st title. Miss World 2022, Karolina Bielawska of Poland will crown her successor at the end of the event. However, the Miss World organization is yet to announce details including the exact venue and final date for event. Ends
