From Everest to Empowerment: Angela Yeung’s Brave Climb for GBV Survivors
Loading player...
🏔️ "I summited Everest with frostbitten cheeks and a backpack full of bras – because survivors deserve dignity." – Angela Yeung
In this powerful Social Impact Show interview, Angela Yeung (mountaineer, jeweler, and founder of Impilo Collection Foundation) shares:
🔥 The Ascent:
What it’s like to be the 2nd South African woman to conquer Everest’s North Side (after 26 years)
The bodies on the trail, -50°C winds, and the 8-minute summit rule
Why she almost turned back – until her Sherpa’s typhoon warning
💡 The Cause:
How 6,800+ bras (and counting!) protect GBV survivors from exploitation
The girl who asked: "Can you bring us bras next time?" – sparking a movement
Donate a bra for R25: www.impilofoundation.org
✨ Life Lessons:
"The mountain mirrors your soul – it taught me humility and Ubuntu."
Why endurance > speed (and how she trained for 7 years)
Her upcoming mountain-inspired jewelry line launching this Women’s Month
