The Big Favour: KZN Slots pays off Aphiwe Miya's outstanding university fees

Loading player...
Aphiwe Miya took on Darren Maule’s Quick Quiz, hoping to win R1,000. When asked what she planned to do with the money, her answer revealed a deeper struggle.

Aphiwe owes R7,722 in outstanding university fees. Without settling this debt, she can't receive her degree in Analytical Chemistry from Mangosuthu University of Technology. Dhamien Munien from KZN Slots stepped up and committed to pay off Aphiwe’s outstanding fees in full.

Visit ecr.co.za, click on The Big Favour tab, and submit a motivation for someone who’s completed their tertiary education, but can't graduate due to outstanding fees.
