Take Action. Inspire Change. Make Every Day A Mandela Day.
July 18, 2018 marks the centenary of the birth of Nelson Mandela. This provides a unique opportunity for people around the world to reflect on his life and times and to promote his legacy.
Bermuda is celebrating Mandela Day and since everyone is a collaborator for Bermuda, you're invited!
Join Chewstick, Imagine Bermuda, #WalkTogetherBermuda and the Chamber of Commerce as we connect with the global celebrations on Mandela Day and uphold Mandela's legacy of service to others.
“Mandela Day is a direct call to action to public institutions, corporates and individuals to act as sources of inspiration and engage in conversations and actions . . . and to also inspire society to act every day and not only to take up the responsibility of impacting other people’s lives on 18 July, but throughout the year, too.”
Everyone is invited to be part of Mandela Day!
