The Deputy Minister for Women Children and People with Disabilities, Hon. Hendrietta Bogopane-Zulu, in partnership with Mango Airlines, invites the media to the handing over event of hippo rollers to older persons at the Missionvale Care Centre. The event will take place tomorrow Tuesday, 8 April 2014, at the Missionvale Care Centre, Port Elizabeth.
The Missionvale Care Centre operates in the extremely poor informal shackland township of Missionvale in Port Elizabeth, South Africa - part of the wider Nelson Mandela Metropole. It was founded by Sister Ethel Normoyle, from humble beginnings, under a tree donated by a resident of Missionvale. It has grown into a centre which provides love and care for the poor and destitute, with particular emphasis on those living with HIV/AIDS. It remains true to her original vision and is still directed by her and a Board of Directors.
Date: 8 April 2014
Time: 09h30
Venue: Missionvale Care Centre, 1 Tromp Road, Missionvale, Port Elizabeth
