Motsepe Foundation founder and African Rainbow Minerals (ARM) executive chairperson and founder Patrice Motsepe has donated $1-million to Guinea’s Ebola Fund on behalf of the organisations.

This donation, for which regulatory approval was received last week, would assist Guinea with clinical management, social mobilisation, medical coordination and other key mechanisms of controlling the disease.

Motsepe called on the African and international business community, as well as the medical fraternity, to continue contributing to and assisting in the fight against the virus, adding that the Motsepe Foundation would work with various stakeholders and other interested parties to combat the outbreak.
