Award-winning South African musician Ndivhudzannyi “Makhadzi” Ralivhona pledges to pay registration fees for 20 students

Award-winning South African musician Ndivhudzannyi “Makhadzi” Ralivhona has once again shown her generosity by offering to pay registration fees for 20 students struggling to enroll for the 2025 academic year.
The Ganama hitmaker announced the initiative on social media, urging interested students to submit their proof of acceptance from any institution along with a motivation letter explaining why they should be selected.
“Education is the key to success, and I would love to lend a hand to open doors! Let’s build a brighter future together,” Makhadzi wrote.
Her support comes at a time when many South African students are facing financial hardships, making higher education difficult to access. Fans and social media users have praised her for giving back to the community.
Despite not pursuing higher education herself due to financial struggles early in her career, Makhadzi understands these challenges firsthand. By covering registration fees, she hopes to inspire the next generation to pursue their dreams without financial barriers.
Her efforts align with other South African artists and celebrities who use their platforms to uplift their communities. Over the years, many figures in the entertainment industry have supported students, and Makhadzi’s contribution adds to these ongoing initiatives.
Makhadzi’s Own Financial Struggles
What makes her generosity even more remarkable is that she is currently dealing with financial difficulties herself. Recently, she faced a tax issue with the South African Revenue Service (SARS), initially reported as a R6.6 million debt. After working with a tax consultant, the amount was reduced to R2.7 million.
Despite these challenges, Makhadzi remains committed to paying off her debts while continuing to support those in need. Her dedication to education and community upliftment continues to earn her admiration and respect.
