Thousands of South Africans around the world took up the challenge yesterday to dedicate 67 minutes to doing some good in their communities – on Nelson Mandela International Day.

Let us know if you took part – write to admin@sapeople.com (and please attach a photo if possible).

My daughter and I registered with Cheese Kids and did our 67 minutes at a children’s home in Khayelitsha on Sunday, 17 July. We met at the Old Mutual Building in Pinelands and were transported by bus to our destination. We received our Nelson Mandela t-shirts and must say I am wearing mine with pride today.

Regards.

My mother in law, my mom and two of my friends and I made 67 sandwiches and handed them out to pre-primary schools kids, to street cleaners and anybody we could find on the street for lunch today in honor of Mandela day!

God is good

Handing out sandwiches
Gayle: "This is Mrs W van Rensburg from George, handing our sandwiches to a few street folks. She said she really enjoyed giving back to SA people even if it was such a small contribution. Happy Birthday Mandela – here is to everybody who did their 67 minutes today!"
