Some had been waiting for years for a wheelchair, having to rely on carers or family to help them to the bathroom or to venture outside for some fresh air. Their lives changed when Gift of the Givers handed out wheelchairs at the Missionvale Care Centre in Nelson Mandela Bay and in Walmer, Gqeb.
Missionvale Care Centre in Nelson Mandela Bay used Mandela Day to showcase the talents of local entrepreneurs and distribute the CVs of those seeking work.
