I'm Edwin Molatise, i'm currently employed as Creative Director and i'm a visual communications designer by profession. I met Kgomotso Phatsima 4 years ago, I admired her work and what she was doing for the community and decided to reach out and joined her foundation as member and mentee. Along those years I was thoughly guided, coached and adviced as I was still a university student. But through the work, experience and the guidance from Kgomotso Phatsima and Dare to Dream, I did very well at school as graduated top of my class and school with few academic awards and a scholarship. Still through her support and guidance, I have grown personally and professionally as she continues to inspire, motivate and push me for better. It is through Kgomotso Phatsima and Dare to Dream that also aspire to one day give back to my community in Kgalagadi and inspire the next generation of creatives like me.

Obonolo Koomane, Chief Instructor at NGAP Academy, met Captain Kgomotso Phatsima when he was 17 years old. She inspired him to pursue aviation. She was the first pilot he had met, and he says he wouldn't be where he is now if it weren't for the mentorship he received from Dare to Dream. He feels strongly about giving back and hopes that love of aviation is ignited by seeing an airplane up close.

"Thank you Dare to Dream, We are what we are because of you. Our students from Mahupu Unified in Takatokwane, Kweneng West have gained so much exposure to technology advancements ever since we met. They liked it more when they became victorious in the Robotics competition you organised. Thereafter they challenged other schools in the Hackathon competition organised by BIUST. They have just been exposed to 3D Modelling and they want to design and program cartoons." Stated Tiroyaone Motsumi, Computer Studies teacher, Mahupu Unified School.
