Skeem Saam lead actor Kwaito (real name is Clement Maosa) is preparing to climb the highest mountain in Africa, Mount Kilimanjaro for a good cause.
The actor recently announced that he will take part in the annual Trek4Mandela expedition to assist in raising funds and creating awareness for the Caring4Girls programme.
“The road to Kilimanjaro, doing it for all those underprivileged, those with less opportunities, lack of resources and facilities and those neglected. I’m doing it for all the orphans out there who are about to lose hope. I’m doing it for equality and social justice,” he wrote on his Instagram page.
Clement, who is also an orphan went on to say that he is also doing this for those who’ve had an impact in his life including the late TV producer Akhumzi Jezile.
“Lastly I’m doing it in honour of my beloved ones. My late mom and dad, my late mom and dad in-law, late friends whom touched and impacted my life,” he wrote.
He also sees his involvement in this initiative as part of a legacy he would like to leave behind when he is not longer here.
“I want to leave my footprints on the sand of time, know there was something that I left behind, when I leave this world I will leave no regrets but something to remember” I WAS HERE!”
