Women of Substance held its ‘Light my fire” women’s function at the a Protea Fire and Ice Hotel in Menlyn on Saturday.
Its founder, Charlotte du Plessis said the organisation was doing well in Johannesburg, and she wanted to bring it to Pretorian women.

Founder of 67 Blankets for Mandela Day, Caryln Steyn who was one of the guest speakers motivated women to give back to the community and assist the less fortunate.
Steyn also thanked Du Plessis for inviting her and applauded her for running an organisation, which she described as ‘not easy’.
