Independence
ZA’s Patron, Vinny da Vinci
Independence ZA
is extremely proud to have as our
patron Vincent Motshegoa, aka Vinny
da Vinci, South African DJ, producer
and entrepreneur extraordinaire.
Vinny’s rags to riches tale is as
relevant today as it was during
1980’s South Africa, with the
hardships of Apartheid substituted
in the case of our beneficiaries by
the pain of HIV-AIDS.
Trustee’s
Biographies
Tim,
founder and trustee, developed the
idea for Independence ZA following an
eye-opening conversation at a wedding
in Pretoria in 2004. The prospect of
helping young South Africans become
independent appeals to his spirit of
enterprise. Tim works for Thomson
Reuters and lives with his wife Rachel
in London. Cricket, travel, wine,
economics and, for his sins, Bafana
Bafana interest him.
