Following the success of Nelson Mandela’s 90th birthday
celebrations in London’s Hyde Park in June 2008, it was decided that there
could be nothing more fitting than to celebrate Mr Mandela’s birthday each year
with a day dedicated to his life’s work and that of his charitable
organisations, and to ensure his legacy continues forever.
The Mandela Day campaign message is simple: Mr Mandela gave
67 years of his life fighting for the rights of humanity. All we are asking is
that everyone gives 67 minutes of their time, whether it’s supporting your
chosen charity or serving your local community.
