    The Raphael Centre for HIV/Aids went the extra mile for Mandela Day, by distributing baby clothes and parcels to disadvantaged mothers, babies and children affected by the virus.

    The baby clothes were donated by a group of women in Scotland, organised by Stella Bell. The clothes were delivered in the surrounding townships.

    The Raphael Centre for HIV/Aids went the extra mile for Mandela Day, by distributing baby clothes and parcels to disadvantaged mothers, babies and children affected by the virus.

    The baby clothes were donated by a group of women in Scotland, organised by Stella Bell. The clothes were delivered in the surrounding townships.

    The donations continued into the afternoon, with HIV/Aids affected children being brought to the centre after school and receiving packets filled with toiletries, tinned food and clothing.

    The Raphael Centre for HIV/Aids is located on Donkin Street and provides free HIV testing, counselling, support groups and life skills education to those suffering or affected by HIV/Aids.

    They have also planted a vegetable garden, which is used to help provide a balanced daily meal to all the members.

    Children affected by HIV/Aids are welcome to visit the centre in the afternoons, where they participate in activities and are mentored by Rhodes University students during the university term time.

    For further information or to make a donation phone Annalie van Niekerk, or visit the website at http://www.raphaelcentre.co.za.
