The Zakithi Nkosi Clinical Haematology Centre of Excellence officially opened on 1 June 2019 at Baragwanath Hospital, Johannesburg. This centre is named after Nkosi’s late daughter Zakithi, who succumbed to a rare and fatal blood disorder called Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) at the tender age of 19.

The Stanley and Daphne Nkosi Foundation (SDNF) commissioned artists Setlamorago Mashilo & Kgaugelo Mashilo ( who are brother & sister) to produce a  life-size bronze sculpture to commemorate Zakithi. 

The Stanley and Daphne Nkosi Foundation (SDNF) in conjunction with the Chris Hani Baragwanath Academic Hospital (CHBAH) built the Zakithi Nkosi Clinical Haematology Centre of Excellence, the first clinic of its kind in South Africa that will predominantly focus on the treatment of different forms of blood disorders.
