When hope seemed lost for 18-year-old Orefile Murwa , her successful bursary application brought her an opportunity to pursue her studies.
To be eligible for the bursary, students must have matriculated in 2023 and visited The Glen Shopping Centre website to fill out the form before January 21, along with a comprehensive motivational letter on why they should be the winner of the bursary. From there, all the entries were submitted to a panel of judges where a first, second and third candidate was chosen by each judge. Ten candidates were invited to an interview with the panel of judges which included the GM of the centre, ward councillor Michael Crichton, head of management studies at Varsity College, Doreen Mukuku and Grolife life coach, Leonie du Preez.
The bursary gives Orefile the opportunity to study law as she has always desired growing up. She is currently a first-year LLB Law degree student at the University of the Witwatersrand which is a four-year course.
