The Nelson Mandela Children’s Fund today announced a new state of the art children’s hospital to be built in Johannesburg.

NMCF trustee Nana Magomola said about 300 children died a year, not because of a shortage of doctors, but due to a lack of facilities dedicated to the care of children. 

The country has only one children's hospital, in Cape Town.

She said the hospital had raised about a quarter of the estimated One Billion-Rand price tag for initial the construction.
