One day after World AIDS day, Marijke Cordia van der Laan and her daughter Elaine van Reesema cut the red ribbon on the staircase of the new MKI Health Information Centre.
It was the family Cordia who made it possible for us to create our own MKI Centre on top of an existing building of our new partner, the Stellenbosch Gemeente in the township of Kayamandi.
Many people, including many children, participated in the opening ceremony. Speeches, prayers and lots of singing. Before the opening ceremony, Fikiswa, the first manager and trainer of our centre gave a stunning workshop on high blood pressure. She was assisted by Dr. Tom Garven, MKI’s Medical Director for Southern Africa.
The new MKI Centre will not only be serving Kayamandi, but also four other surrounding townships.
