Model: Marike Le Roux

Charity: Red Eye Inc.

Hometown: South Africa

What makes you feel drawn to helping people and getting involved? I think it’s my background coming from South Africa, my mom and dad had one of the very first shelters for homeless kids, they started that the year I was born and so I think I’ve always had that natural attraction to helping out in any small way. It’s actually helping yourself, too, more than just helping others.

How did you get discovered? Well, my family moved to South Korea when I was I think 13. I got discovered on the street there, and this agent kept following me everyday when I walked to my parents, and I just never spoke to him, and one day he followed me to my parents’ work and there you go.

What would you say are some of the best perks about modeling? Definitely getting to see the world. Meeting amazing, creative, driven people and getting to work with them.

What are some of your most favorite places that you’ve visited? I have to say, last year I went to Gambia, which is Western Africa, it’s called the Smiling Coast of Africa, everyone there just smiles. It was one of my favorite places.

Why doesn't her show card have polas like the others?

I'm so glad she is walking again this season. I hope we see a lot of her. But why does her hair look gray in the 2nd picture -- what happened?

^It's an old editorial, she also had blue, green and pink hair if i remember correctly
