Nelson Mandela monument by artist Marco Cianfanelli near Howick, South Africa
Today we’re in Howick, a town near the east coast of South Africa, where this monument honours the anti-apartheid activist and South African President Nelson Mandela. Mandela Day – celebrated on Mandela’s birthday – is intended not as a holiday exactly but as a day to answer the ‘global call to action’ by finding ways to engage in service to your local community. The best part about Mandela Day? You don’t need to be from South Africa to observe the event.
