Project Name/Description:
His Presence Foundation, CEO and Founder
Selaelo Ramahlo is not your regular entrepreneur; she is a self-confident social entrepreneur who turns her communities’ misfortunes into social and economic opportunities. His Presence Foundation is not your ordinary charity organisation, it is a vehicle for community development, youth and women empowerment, leadership mentorship, and economic upliftment. Her approach in the business world is very distinct; it is an infusion of social services with entrepreneurship, not just driven by profit-making, but also making contributions in various communities. “I committed myself to creating an enterprise that blends strategy with service.” Last year, she was honoured as one of the Mail and Guardian Top 200 Young South Africans for 2024 in the Civil Society Category. Her tertiary qualification, Municipal and Public Governance from the University of Johannesburg, is closely aligned with her social business journey.
