THOUGHT LEADERS
tobam: This is a woman owned and managed entity that provides sanitary
pads and underwear to poor deserving young black girls in the province of the
Neastern cape in particular. Ntombam is a distributer of Sanitary pads and a
manufacturer of Ntombam clothing line which produces the underwear. This enterprise
is led by a erce woman entrepreneur named Babalwa Mbuku whose passion for the
dignity of a black child is her key driver. She exudes the condence that she seeks to see
in these young women of our society and which can only be enhanced if their hygiene is
top of class. In addition to the provision of the pads and underwear, she is continually
engaged in talks with schools and communities in which she teaches young women
how to embrace their womanhood and what the natural growth process of them
transitioning into womanhood means. This is a lesson passed to both young women
and the old that have a role to play in ensuring that we raise strong willed and
empowered women in our communities lled with grace and dignity. The Ntombam
range of underwear is designed and manufactured by Sibo Next level Fashion, a black
owned entity.
e Mvelo – DMT Agri Co-op: This is a black owned primary co-operative that is a
producer of pure organic essential oils and soap products. The product range
Lknown as Le Mvelo and true to its name is a production of natural soaps and
lotions from various plant extracts. We produce soaps using familiar ingredients to our
communities like Impepho and Umhlonyane whilst also using various other oils like
Rose Geranium, Tea tree, Lavender etc. The passion for all things natural and indigenous
to our communities to promote our pride as the black people in general is by far our
greatest driver. We wish to create a product that has great resonance with the people of
our country and their everyday lives. It is our greatest mission to ensure that a product
produced from our soils can get great acclaim and be utilized by the very people it is
meant for.
INTERVENTION
We appeal to all ministerial outreach programs in general and that of the ministry of
rural development and land reform in particular where this idea was incubated to
support this initiative by purchasing the Dignity pack as their preferred gift pack. Each
time there is an outreach program of any form in any community we believe the dignity
of a black girl can be restored.
Her Beauty, Her Strength, Her DIGNITY, Her Life
