That evening models in attendance will have the opportunity to walk the runway ahead of pageant day.
Every entrant will be collecting five cans of food to be donated to the Phontsho Disability Centre in Lebowakgomo by the winners. “Teaching our youth to care and give is what pageantry is all about,” Celliers reiterated when saying the main purpose of Limpopo Beauty pageants being building self-confidence in young girls and inculcating the notion of giving back to the community.
