A child of Apartheid, Veshana knows firsthand what it takes to achieve in the face of adversity. From her earliest years, she moved forward hand in hand with other girls, who, like her, were shooting for the stars.  

Today, Veshana is a well-respected oncologist with UNC Hospital.  And those girls from long ago?  They have achieved their dreams, same as Veshana.

And their friendships with one another are stronger than ever.​
