The reigning Miss Independence Kgatleng queen, Neo Vicky Monametsi, concluded her tenure with a charitable project at Artesia Kgotla, generously donating clothes, food hampers, and toiletries on Friday.

Monametsi's philanthropic effort was made possible through the support of Clicks Group Botswana. She directed her support towards a vulnerable 19-year-old, Patience Legase, who shared her challenging life journey with the attendees.

Legase expressed her long-time desire to become a beauty queen, citing her admiration for their stunning dresses. Despite facing early pregnancy during her Form Two, Legase demonstrated resilience, returning to school after childbirth.

Legase expressed concern about the prevalent issues in Artesia, where young girls engage in relationships with older men.
