Bonang Matheba will be making the day of three young South African women in September when she gives away three of her favorite red carpet dresses and make over with her glam squad for their matric dances.
This comes at the end of Women’s Month in which Bonang graced the cover of GQ’s September Power Issue and was announced a presenter at the Global Citizen Festival in Johannesburg on December 2 in celebration of the Centenary of Nelson Mandela.
“I’ve had a most blessed month and want to share in my success by acknowledging others and encouraging individuals to feel strong, beautiful and empowered. So I’m giving three young ladies the chance to win one of my red carpet stunners and to be the queen of their matric dances ,” says Bonang.
Entrants need to send their motivation as to why they deserve to win a Bonang Matheba red carpet dress and a make over, to womenofthefuture@bonangmatheba.com
“I’ll read them all and then announce the winners live from New York Fashion Week. As Women’s Month comes to a close I want us to remind each other that we are all queens in our own unique way.”
Winners will be announced live by Queen B from Times Square, New York on September 10.

I would really like to win the competition besides being queen B ‘s number 1 fan I cannot afford to go to the matric farewell simply because my mom cannot afford it. Things are very hard at home the situation is very bad I try all my best to work hard at school so that I can finish school and take my mom out of the situation she’s in , when I say things are hard I mean it . My stepfather made my mother choose between me and her , he ultimately kicked me out of the house I now live with my aunt . At times I don’t even go to school because I don’t have transport money. I would really like to go to prom , I had already told my friends that I’m not going because financially it’s rough , not even sure if I’ll be able to pay my fees next year but I tried applying for student loans. My mom is really suffering and it’ breaks my heart to see her like that
