Every year on 18 July, South Africans and people around the world come together to honour Nelson Mandela’s legacy by giving 67 minutes of their time to serve others. It’s a small gesture that reflects the 67 years Madiba devoted to fighting for justice, equality, and human dignity.
At Stellenbosch Hospice, we believe deeply in the power of community and compassion. This Mandela Day, we invite you to make your minutes count by joining us in bringing care, comfort, and dignity to those who need it most.
Why Your Time Matters
In just 67 minutes, you can make a meaningful impact:
- Share a warm meal with a patient or family in need
- Help tidy up a garden or care space
- Offer your skills, whether it’s admin support, crafts, or a kind conversation
- Contribute donations of essential items
No act is too small. Sometimes, simply sitting with someone and sharing a smile can lift their spirit more than you realise.
Honouring Madiba’s Legacy
Mandela Day is more than just a date on the calendar; it’s a call to action. It reminds us that we all have the power to uplift others and strengthen our community, one small act at a time.
By supporting Stellenbosch Hospice, you’re not only helping us care for the seriously ill, you’re also helping us preserve dignity, bring hope, and build human connection.
Together, we can honour Madiba’s dream of a kinder, more compassionate society. To get involved, visit www.Stellenboschhospice.co.za or contact us directly.
Volunteer. Donate. Make a Difference.
