Marcia Orlin celebrated her 94th birthday at Coffee Time amongst friends and family.
After retiring as a teacher from Vera School for autistic children at age 65, she joined Astra as a volunteer. Her multi-talents and creativity have been an integral part of the organisation, and she remained a dedicated volunteer until lockdown. The inspiring life story of this remarkable woman has been chronicled on the SABC programme Forever Young. It can be viewed at https://youtu.be/FN6bSDEwkcE
