Backing Zacri’s Dream of Becoming a Chef

Some people talk about what they want to do. Zacri shows up and does the work every single week, without fail.

He is a young man from Hanover Park with a clear goal, a strong character, and a matric year ahead of him that could open every door he has been working toward. All he needs is for financial hardship not to stand in the way.

Zacri is a bright, respectful, and hardworking 2026 matric student from Hanover Park. He has been actively involved in Dr. Phil-Afel Foundation community programmes, where he consistently shows up, supports others, and demonstrates real commitment. He is completing his matric at Wellington School of Skills - a specialised, practical learning institution, with a specific dream to become a professional chef.
