“What counts in life is not that we have lived. It is how we have changed the lives of others.” (Nelson Mandela)
Hugo Tempelman, his wife Liesje and his entire team have been working in the spirit of Nelson Mandela’s wise words for more than 20 years. The daily credo of the Ndlovu Care Group’s work is not to wait for someone to do something, but to take matters into their own hands. And it is the call that is regularly made on International Nelson Mandela Day.
The International Nelson Mandela Remembrance Day is celebrated annually on July 18, the birthday of the South African Nobel Peace Prize winner. On this day, humanitarian behavior is encouraged. In the spirit of its namesake. On this day, everyone is asked to make their own personal contribution. According to the South African Embassy in Berlin, “Mandela Day is a call for charitable deeds by and for people around the world.” Everyone should take responsibility to improve the world step by step, just as Nelson Mandela did.
Of course, this call is not just for this one special day. The Nelson Mandela Foundation asks: WHAT CAN I DO TO MAKE EVERY DAY A NELSON MANDELA DAY?
With this in mind, you can report any of your actions in words and pictures on the https://www.mandeladay.com/ website.
