How a Capfin loan for part-time education empowered Limakatso’s career goals
Limakatso Mahlonoko’s story of furthering her studies and building a better life for herself and her family is inspiring. Thanks to a Capfin loan for part-time education, she achieved her goal of registering for a part-time human resources course at the University of the Western Cape (UWC) while working full-time. Here’s how this opportunity empowered her to take charge of her destiny and has set her on a path to success and fulfilment.
Limakatso Mahlonoko, a 28-year-old call centre agent from Bellville, Cape Town, is reigniting her dream of a career in human resources. Eight years after initially embarking on her educational journey, she can afford to continue her HR studies this year thanks to a Capfin loan for part-time education.
Limakatso hopes that advancing her long-delayed education will help her create a better life for herself and her family.
"I’m passionate about helping people and ensuring business runs smoothly without any hassles or issues. That’s why I want to pursue this qualification. The end goal is to graduate from school, get a proper job, have my family around me, and live in proper accommodation," she shares.
A journey of opportunities
Limakatso’s journey to fulfilling her dream has involved navigating numerous growth opportunities with budget considerations. Despite these responsibilities she has remained motivated pursuing her passion.
Fiercely independent, she took out a small loan for part-time education from Capfin in January. This financial support allowed her to register for her human resources course at UWC. She’s now enrolled part-time for modules covering business management, economics, accounting, and more.
With Capfin empowering Limakatso to bring her vision for her future to fruition, she can pursue her passion without the added financial worries. "The personal loan has made a huge difference in my life. I can continue my studies without any added stress," she says, adding that she's one step closer to helping people.
Hope and a dream renewed
Limakatso's loan application process was smooth and efficient. She completed everything online. After submitting all the requested documents, she received approval and the payment just a day later.
Now, her biggest challenge is juggling work, studying, and her responsibilities at home. Her typical day starts with getting ready for work and heading to the office. Later, when she returns, she studies before preparing dinner and unwinding for the evening.
Limakatso's commitment to her education is evident in her daily routine. After a full day at the call centre, she transforms her living space into a makeshift study area. Without a dedicated desk, she adapts to her environment, often studying on the couch or floor—wherever feels most comfortable.
This flexibility demonstrates her resourcefulness and unwavering focus on her goals. Despite balancing full-time work with part-time studies, her determination shines through in her disciplined approach to her evening study sessions.
