Steven’s Ability Centre recently received a donation from Bedfordview-based property company, Harcourts Kempen.
The donation was made through the company’s Harcourts Foundation.
According to the company’s CEO, Mr Nicholas Kempen, the R8 000 will go towards the purchase of a coffee machine for the centre’s coffee shop, which is open to the public.
