Born as the second of four children to health practitioner parents, Adam and Louisa Maiphetlho, Lerato was destined for a life-saving profession. Following in their footsteps, she completed her MBChB at UCT and later specialised in Occupational Health at the same esteemed institution. Nowadays, Lerato runs an occupational clinic at Evander Gold Mine. It was only natural for her to eagerly support her sister Koketso’s endeavour to foster positive change in Atteridgeville through the Supreme Cadets Institute. After all, they were raised in a home where their doors and resources were always open to family, friends, and community members in need. Lerato’s generosity extends beyond financial aid she offers medical consultations and secures necessary medication for Cadets without any charges to SCI or the affected Cadets themselves. Compassion and dedication to making the world a better place.
