Born and raised in the townships of Cape Town, Hazel’s big personality and infectious smile caught the attention of the Orca Foundation when she was performing with the Ontombo Theatre Choir.

Now she’s employed as a Tour Guide and takes tourists on boat trips out to the bay to see the 'Big 5' marine animals. The money raised by Orca goes directly to a local township school - paying the teachers’ salaries and feeding the township kids.
