Minah Koela, Executive Director​
​
Minah Vuyiswa Koela (nee Rasmen) was born in Gugulethu and grew up in Crossroads, on the outskirts of Cape Town. She attended Nelson Mandela High in Old Crossroads, where she experienced many riots surrounding the fight for political freedom. In 1995, Minah began volunteering with Beautiful Gate’s Street Children’s ministry alongside the founder, Toby Brouwer, and has remained connected to Beautiful Gate ever since. 
Later, Minah met and married Pastor Brian Koela. Together they were involved in student ministry at the University of Cape Town (UCT) and the Cape Peninsula University of Technology. The couple has four sons and lead UBukho Bakhe church in Wynberg, Cape Town.  ​Minah joined the Board of Beautiful Gate in 2012 while running her own language translation business. In 2016 she completed her post graduate Diploma in Business Management at UCT Graduate School of Business, specialising in Leadership Innovation. Minah was inaugurated into the role of Executive Director of Beautiful Gate South Africa during the Annual Celebration on the 12th October 2019.
