The South African Heroes Awards celebrate unsung heroes who go out of their way to make a difference in their communities, giving them their flowers while they can still smell them. The recipient of the Art of Giving honorary Award Khabonina Qubeka is a force driving this narrative.

Khabonina Qubeka is an award-winning actress, choreographer, content producer, Yogi, health, and wellness lifestyle coach. She is the founder of Khabonina foundation through which she has been regulating schools through Edudance – education through dance. It’s for this work that the iconic star is receiving the Art of Giving honorary award at the SA heroes awards 2023. The Art of Giving Award honorary award is given to artist in film/theatre/music/dance/creative arts, who use their art to give back to communities either through mentorship, training or contributing towards community upliftment through their art.

“This award could not have come at a better time. I’m feeling powerful as a woman, a mother, a nurturer, and I’m inspired by the work I’m currently doing in schools and future plans I have for schools as The Khabonina Foundation. The biggest lesson I put forward is that giving back should come naturally. Use your voice and any platform you may currently have to give back. This is the most refreshing gift you can give yourself, which in turn, benefit the community and those around you. The creator of these awards should be honoured too. What a selfless kind act of appreciation!” Khabonina Qubeka said.

The extravagant Awards ceremony will be held on 30 September at Joburg Theatre. Hosted by actress Linda Njontini-Ugbobuaku
