Thabang Skwambane
Former Investment Banker, Social
Activist,
Dream Mapper
Thabang’s personal tragedies include two
consecutive bankruptcies and witnessing
firsthand the death of an HIV-positive
person. These humbling events profoundly
altered the course of his destiny as he
traded in his stocks and bonds for a
life dedicated to caring and sharing.
Today, this one time investment banker
is a committed social activist who has
established The Lonely Foundation, an
initiative that aims to raise funds and
awareness of the plight of orphaned and
vulnerable children throughout Africa.
As we accompany Thabang on his soul
journey, he talks candidly about the
seductive power of consumerism, of how
he discovered true wealth and meaning in
life and of the role of dream mapping in
attaining his goals. We also explore
whether or not sport can be used as a
transformative tool for social
upliftment and for connecting to spirit.
“As Africans we need to activate our
hearts and minds and hold out a hand to
those who have lost everything.” |
