Violet Mbongwe: Becoming a nurse to help others after tragedy struck her family
Inspired by the medical and nursing staff who saved her brother's life after he was shot, Violet Mbongwe decided to pursue her dream of becoming a nurse. In this episode of Good Morning Angels: The Legacy, we follow up with Mbongwe after Good Morning Angels helped make her dream a reality.
In February 2021, Violet Mbongwe received a bursary on the Good Morning Angels New Year's Edition with Sabat Batteries.
Her dream: to study nursing so she could help patients and their families—just as her own family had needed help 12 years earlier.
Violet's brother was shot in a tragic accident, but thanks to the dedication of medical professionals, he survived and went on to live a normal life. Witnessing this, Violet saw the profound impact it had on her mother, the most important person in her life, and resolved to dedicate her own life to helping and healing others.
In this episode of Good Morning Angels: The Legacy, Violet Mbongwe shares her story of hope, resilience, and hard work—and how the kindness of Angels enabled and inspired her journey.
