Mashatile to honour top achievers at Vincent Tshabalala Education Trust Annual Bursary Awards ceremony

Deputy President Paul Mashatile will on Friday honour top-achieving learners, as well as their schools and teachers from the Matric Class of 2024, at the Vincent Tshabalala Education Trust Annual Bursary Awards.

The Deputy President has served as the Chairperson of the Vincent Tshabalala Education Trust since its establishment in 2004 and currently holds the position of patron. 

This non-profit organisation (NPO) has awarded bursaries to numerous learners and university students, many of whom have made significant contributions to the development and growth of the Alexandra community and beyond.

The Deputy President’s late friend and comrade, Vincent Tshabalala, was a founder of the Alexandra Youth Congress (AYCO) and a member of the ANC’s military wing, Umkhonto we Sizwe. 

Tshabalala lost his life in a confrontation with the apartheid police in Alexandra in 1985.

Today, hundreds of learners from Alexandra high schools have been awarded bursaries. Some of those who have completed their studies are now chartered accountants, engineers, information technology specialists, lawyers, lecturers, and auditors.

The awards ceremony will be held at San Kopano Community Hall, located on 12th Avenue in Alexandra Township, Johannesburg. – SAnews.gov.za
