Hey there, folks. Let me tell you about a young woman who took to social media to express her gratitude to the National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS). But this wasn’t just a simple thank-you note—she decided to put her allowance to work in a very unique way.

A TikTok user named @marhadu1 shared a video where she revealed how she used her NSFAS funds to construct her very own room. In the video, she showed off the bricks she purchased and even included a receipt for everything she bought. Talk about transparency! It seems like this young woman was living in the main house but wanted some independence as she grew older. So, she decided to build herself a cozy back room. And let me tell you, the finished product is nothing short of impressive. While we don’t know exactly how much she spent, she made sure to thank NSFAS for making it all possible.

"Enkosi NSFAS." (Thank you, NSFAS)
