Ebenezer Psychiatric Home based in Witpoortjie puts out an appeal for donations.

The South African Revenue Service has made a great announcement! If you donate before Tuesday, February 28 this year, individuals, trusts, private and public companies, etc can get up to 45% back on your taxable income as part of your allowable Tax Benefits for the 2023 tax year.

Ebenezer Psychiatric Home is a licensed non-profit organisation that takes care of mentally ill adults with Bipolar or Schizophrenia. The home-based organisation in Witpoortjie is registered under Section 18a, which provides tax exemption benefits to donors.
