Carla Rossouw Donor Administration
I was born in a small town in KZN and relocated to the Western Cape with my parents when I was 15 years old.
I have been working in Online Sales for most of my life, but my heart has always had a yearning to be in a position where I can help people and I believe that I am now in the right place.
I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 2022 and although MS has impacted my life it’s also provided me with many opportunities, and I have met some amazing people on my journey.
MS has made me strong, bold, courageous, and as difficult as it is sometimes, there’s so much life that I have been able to live.
I live in Pringle Bay with my husband, sausage dog and 3 cats.
