“We are Brand Zanele Collective
/zahˈnelle/
The name Zanele is a Zulu term for the English word ‘enough’. It’s always been woven into my identity as a reminder that everything that I am and everything I will become will always be enough. Therefore, it’s my duty to create platforms that exude the same belief and the same expectation for all.
We are truly, enough.”
Zanele Mutepfa - Rhone

SPEAKER series
HERE TO STAY
Here to Stay builds experiential engagement to promote the elevation of every woman’s position in the world, through identity celebration and the enhancement of cross-community collaboration.
We host bi-monthly speaker series committed to championing a roster of diverse women that are not only thought leaders in their fields of profession, but local pioneers with global impact.
“You may not always have a comfortable life and you will not always be able to solve all of the world’s problems at once but don’t ever underestimate your importance because history has shown us that courage can be contagious and hope can take on a life of its own.”
