Nelson Mandela was a South African revolutionary, political leader, and philanthropist who served as President of South Africa from 1994 to 1999.
He was regarded as an icon of democracy and social justice and received more than 250 honors - including the Nobel Peace Prize - and became the subject of a cult of personality. He is an inspiration to all who knew him and a hero for the ages.
Mandela day is celebrated on 18th July every year and recalls the life of Nelson Mandela and reminds us of the necessity for strong men and women to stand up against injustice.
Mandela Day is all about service to others and the creation of a better world for everyone.
Get out there and find the injustices in your neighborhood, city, or state and do everything you can to help alleviate them.
Do not think that such grand gestures as those made by Mandela are necessary, it takes every small effort of everyone working together to create a world that’s fair and just for everyone.
