GABORONE – Stanbic Bank Botswana is passionate about supporting Botswana’s youth in embarking on unchartered paths, displaying bold ambitions in working towards their dreams. Reigning Miss Botswana, Palesa Molefe, is the very embodiment of how a single bright spark can bring together a nation with grace, charisma, and courage, and the Bank is proud to stand beside her in sponsoring Palesa’s final Miss World leg..The Miss World final takes place tonight, the 16th of December 2021, in Puerto Rico. Palesa has made it to the finals after a successful head-to-head challenge the week prior. She joins fellow beauty queens as the Top 30 contenders make their way to the stage for one final hurrah. The Bank’s sponsorship of P60,000 goes towards travel and wardrobe costs in this regard..Said Chose Modise, Chief Finance Officer of Stanbic Bank Botswana, “What Palesa has already done this far is nothing short of admirable., This is a young woman who has brought together the hearts of a nation even in the midst of a pandemic. Her eloquence, courage and poise are magnetic, and show that with bravery and determination, it can be. One’s dreams are possible if only we work towards them. We are proud to call Palesa our queen, and even prouder to stand behind her in this journey, knowing with full confidence that her story is only just beginning, for her work in communities and advocating for progress for Batswana continues. Tonight, our hearts are blue and white for Palesa as we all cheer her on!”.Miss Botswana Organiser, Kaone Moremong, appreciated Bank’s relentless commitment to empower the local community. He said the cash injection will go a long way as organisers have been struggling financially, highlighting that to plan a national pageant successfully without compromises is expensive. "To manage a Queen for the whole reign is also pricey as we have to manage her wardrobe, transport, accommodation, hair, and management costs for a year," he said..The Pageantry's aim is to empower young ladies from all corners of the country, equip all those who participate with life skills and the ability to be community developers. The pageant has also created many job opportunities for a lot of Batswana who were engaged such as film and television producers, make-up artists, chefs, motivational speakers, gym instructors, designers, photographers, brand managers, public relations, accounts just to mention a few..Miss World finalists continue to encourage their supporters to vote on the MobStar App to help increase their chances of success.
