ORANGE FARM. –  A young lady from Orange Farm, Tatyana Chabedi (22), believes that taking care of young people will in the long run lead South Africa to being a better country.

This Founder and Director of Miss Lakeside and Be You Modelling Agency from Orange Farm Extension 2 is also involved in various community development programs which also include serving food to the needy in her community.

Chabedi said that she opened a modeling agency to groom young girls and ladies who want to take part in modeling and to also help them grow as individuals. She also helps the models to know the business side of models, educates them about the dangers of the field, and shapes them into powerful leaders of tomorrow.

“I believe in helping young ladies to be the best versions of themselves and make a better living for their own future for both mental and financial stability. I currently have fifteen models that are taking part in this prestigious pageant and I would like to help them further their modeling careers.”

Chabedi said that their models are dedicated ladies who don’t only strive for sashes and crowns but help their communities with charity work and empower themselves to be great leaders.

• The first annual Miss Lakeside will take place on December 2, at the All Nations Hall (Ha Thwala Extension 2). For more details, Chabedi can be reached at 078 822 9551.
