The Charlotte Maxeke Academic Hospital will on Thursday unveil new multi-million rand stores after the old special dispensary stores were gutted by raging fires in 2021.
The unveiling of the stores comes after the Gift of the Givers contributed R60-million to the upgrade of the hospital in Johannesburg.
Present at the unveiling of the state-of-the-art general stores will be Health Minister Dr Joe Phaahla who will be joined by Gauteng MEC for health and wellness Nomantu Nkomo-Ralehoko and Gift of Givers’ Dr Imitiaz Sooliman.
Gauteng Premier Panyaza Lesufi is also expected to attend.
Sooliman said the fire in the stores’ section of the hospital caused a huge setback in one of the most significant health facilities in South Africa.
