 | | |  | | Name: | Vera Leech | | Vera Leech is a trustee and board member of Mondesa Youth Opportunities Trust, having first become involved with the Trust about 5 years ago.
Education is important to Vera – she is a trained teacher, who qualified in Zimbabwe and she has been involved with education for almost 40 years now. Vera majored in English which has served her well – the continent of Africa is in desperate need of experienced English teachers who are committed to their work.
She and her husband immigrated to Namibia almost 30 years ago, and they have loved this country from the first moment. Here here they have lived happily with their two children, loving the land, the people and the lifestyle. Namibia is one of Africa’s jewels.
Education is the key to success, and we try to impress that on our learners. MYO opens a door to a better, more informed life and she is proud to be part of it.
