In an interview with Platinum Busvelder Yandiswa said:

“I still have a few projects planned, including a movie night at the Thabazimbi Royalty Baptist church on 15 June, a fundraising colour-run for a special needs school, reading to the elderly and treating them with foot massages, and visiting Ysterberg Primary School to give pupils a speech about why education is important.”


Yandiswa is also very passionate about women’s aid who helps women and children that are victims of domestic abuse.

Yandiswa Lesenya is ploughing back to the community.
