About Mandela Day

Mandela Day is an annual celebration of Nelson Mandela's life and global call to action for people to recognize their individual power to make an imprint and change the world around them. A global movement for positive change begins with small actions. As each person acts, they fuel momentum toward positive change, raising awareness and expanding the reach of Mr. Mandela's values - fighting injustice, helping people in need and practicing reconciliation. MandelaDay.com was created to help empower people to make an imprint by finding opportunities to address social issues.
