You are invited to join us for Mandela Day on 18 July

Mandela Day is an annual global celebration that takes place on 18 July to honour the life and legacy of Nelson Mandela. As Mandela Day approaches, a profound opportunity exists to make a difference.

MES would like to invite you to come and spend your 67 minutes with us in honour of Mandela’s 67 years of sacrifice to better the lives of others. Every minute counts, whether lending a helping hand at a local shelter, delivering donations, or engaging in meaningful conversations.

Even the smallest gesture of kindness can significantly impact someone’s life. We welcome anyone interested in getting involved and helping us serve our vulnerable inner-city communities.

Our Johannesburg, Kempton Park, Cape Town, and Gqeberha branches will celebrate Mandela Day on 18 July 2024.

Different activities will take place at our various branches. To find out more, book your slot, or explore ways to Change the heart of the city with MES during Mandela month, please contact us at:

Please note that donations may be dropped off at different locations between 08:00 – 16:00, Monday to Friday, from 15 to 19 July. To make alternative arrangements, please contact your nearest branch.
