Miss Universal Petite Botswana donates toiletries, clothing

Wednesday, February 18, 2015

The reigning Miss Universal Petite Botswana, One Mariri, donated toiletries and clothing to children of Motswedi Rehabilitation Centre in Mochudi recently. The beauty queen said she has a major project called ‘One Love, Charity Driven’, which aims to help various charitable organisations around the country.

This was her first partnership with a charity organisation, since she was crowned Miss Universal Petite Botswana last June. She said she particularly chose to donate on Valentine’s Day, as it is a day set aside globally to celebrate love.

“I personally have love for children, hence why I saw the need to spend time with them and show love to these physically and mentally challenged children as they need to be shown love the most,” Mariri said.
