Social Grants
With respect to welfare, Ba-Phalaborwa Municipality has the Christelike Maatskaplike Raad (CMR) based at
the Dutch Reformed Church in Phalaborwa town, the Maroela house which serves as a house of safety for
abused women and children. The number of people receiving social grants, as provided by the Lulekani
office, is presented in Table below. The figures for the Disability Grant and the Child Support still needs to
be confirmed since these figures do not seem realistic taking into consideration the monthly amounts paid
for these grants
