"Make Everyday a Mandela Day" this slogan is expressed to us every day especially in July when Nelson Mandela celebrates his birthday on the 18th of July. The 67 minutes of giving to the community in whatever way you can, just to put a smile on someone’s face, make someone’s day, month, year and so on.
Cheesekids played their part...........
The World would be a better place if more and more people take initiative to help where help is needed and some or rather most communities need valuable resources put together for change and improvement in their communities, and for some people it is more valuable when taken out of their communities so that they can explore different places, places they have never seen before in the City.
Newtown, Johannesburg was the place to be on Saturday, all the young people came out to play their part and make a difference in Mzansi. It only took 5 minutes to register and be part this great movement. Cheesekids provided buses to take their stuff and the people who took part in the movement to their destination. The place visited was Soso Orphanage Home, and one lady states that she was humbled and privileged to meet children at the Soso Orphanage Home. The cheesekids team motivated these young kids, by sharing their stories of success and how they got to the point they are at present. Tears and laughter was dominating in the room as the kids were happy to see the team and after they shared their stories about how they felt about them being there in their beautiful home. The team was motivating which made the team realise how powerful and how much potential South African Youth is.
This beautiful,long day ended at the grounds of Newtown, Johannesburg,where there was great performances by

MAKE EVERYDAY A MANDELA DAY,IT DOES NOT MATTER WHO AND WHERE YOU ARE.
i dont think most people understand the word help those in need,for them its about getting expossure they do not help because its the right thing instead they are doing it for publicity
ReplyDeleteI guess everyone is entitled to thier own opinions and views when it comes to sensitive issues,like helping others. Be it Mandela Day or any other day,it takes a lot for someone yo actually help you. I understand where you coming from interms of the "publicity issue" at the end of the day,it's not the people you helping nor the public that is affected but your own concious at the end of the day. People need to think about that when lending a hand or going out the,you doing from the goodness of your heart.
