According to Joe Nowbath of ArcelorMittal South Africa (AMSA), the institution was recently visited by members of Majuba Rotary and ArcelorMittal, who donated five brand-new wheelchairs as well as blankets to the mission.
Deep within the picturesque mountains on the outskirts of Washbank lies the Maria Ratchitz Mission, an institution established in the 1880s which has withstood the ravages of time.
It does so by continuing to serve humanity; by providing an AIDS hospice and a home for the terminally ill, among other functions.
