Nelson Mandela international day – Take Action!
Nelson Mandela International day calls on everyone to do their bit to brighten up the lives of those in dire straights. It is a call to make the world a better place and spread a message of hope, unity and positivity. This year we celebrate 100 years since the birth of Nelson Mandela, the centenary seeing a push in getting the campaign out there, predominately under the hashtag #ActionAgainstPoverty
Why is it 67 minutes?
