Honoring A Legacy: Nelson Mandela International Day

In commemoration of the birth of a great leader, we celebrate Nelson Mandela International Day on  July 18

Nelson Mandela was an embodiment of faith, love, empathy, and compassion

People are encouraged to perform community service for 67 minutes in honor of his 67 years of fight for equality

"Combating Poverty and Inequality is in Our Hands" is the theme for this year's celebration

Known for his contributions to fundamental rights, he is considered the father of South Africa

The day is a remarkable celebration that inspires us to make a difference and spread love and compassion to all
