Prudence Mabhena was born with Arthrogryposis, and was severely disabled. The society she was born into considers disabilities to carry the taint of witchcraft.[1] Because of this, she was abandoned by her family. As a result, she was raised by her maternal grandmother who sang to her while working on her farm. She later attended King George VI School for the disabled in Bulawayo.[2][3] Musical careerWhile at school she discovered a love for music and performing, and founded the band Liyana with seven other disabled students and was made up of:

AwardsApart from music awards, she also received the 2018 Henry Viscardi Achievement Awards given to leaders in disability sector.[5] References1. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.sfbayview.com/2010/oscar-nomination-for-%E2%80%98music-by-prudence%E2%80%99-about-disabled-zimbabwean-singer-prudence-mabhena/|title=Oscar nomination for ‘Music by Prudence’ about disabled Zimbabwean singer Prudence Mabhena|date=5 March 2010|publisher=San Francisco BayView|accessdate=21 March 2010}} {{authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Mabhena, Prudence}}2. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.npr.org/2010/05/11/126673833/prudence-mabhena-out-of-struggle-a-soaring-voice|title=Prudence Mabhena: Out Of Struggle, A Soaring Voice|last=|first=|date=May 11, 2010|website=|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=}} 3. ^{{Cite web|url=http://bulawayo24.com/index-id-opinion-sc-blogs-byo-38906.html|title=The Oscar that Prudence Mabhena never won|last=Mazara|first=Garikai|date=|website=|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=}} 4. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.newzimbabwe.com/showbiz-22608-Prudence+Mabhena+named+SA+ambassador/showbiz.aspx|title=Oscar-winning Prudence Mabhena appointed ambassador for SA's Casual Day|last=|first=|date=|website=|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=}} 5. ^{{cite web |title=2018 Henry Viscardi Achievement Awards Announced |url=https://www.viscardicenter.org/2018-henry-viscardi-achievement-awards-announced/}} 5 : Zimbabwean female singers|1986 births|Living people|21st-century singers|21st-century women singers |
