The Unstoppable Carla Marais: A Force for Change in South Africa
Carla Marais is not just a titleholder; she is a movement. As Mrs. Africa 2024 and Mrs. Global Universe South Africa 2024, Carla exemplifies the multifaceted spirit of modern womanhood, deftly balancing the roles of a loving mother and a bold advocate. Her story is one of resilience, passion, and an unwavering commitment to giving back to her community.
Raised in a world where personal safety is paramount, Carla took her first step into the firearms and ammunition industry, merging beauty with grit. She recognizes that empowerment begins with knowledge, and through her work, she champions responsible firearm ownership, breaking gender stereotypes in a traditionally male-dominated field.
Whether she’s feeding the homeless or rallying support for the LGBTQIA+ community, Carla’s impact resonates in all the corners of her life. Her journey took an unexpected turn when she received the bravery award in Singapore, an honor she cherishes, but she insists it’s not the accolades that define her—it’s the lives she touches.
Inspired by her own family’s struggles with breast cancer and autism, Carla’s heart beats for children and animals alike, rallying behind causes like Cupcakes for Kids with Cancer and Four Paws. “Giving back isn’t about recognition; it’s about uplifting the voiceless and marginalized,” she asserts.
With a mantra to “be the change you wish to see in the world,” Carla Marais is more than a public figure. She is an emblem of hope, fiercely advocating for those who need it most, gracefully proving that women can wear many crowns and still hold up the world.
