July the 18th is International Mandela day when people around the world are asked to spend 67 minutes doing community service. They day is in remembrance of the years spent in prison by anti Apartheid fighter and former South African President Nelson Mandela who was known for his humanity. Channel Africa joined up with Radio 2000 in partnership with Joburg City Parks, Aranda, Nedbank, Iskcon and Venus Security for a project called “67 Minutes of Love”, which saw South Africans spending the day giving love to the homeless and needy in Joubert Park in Johannesburg. Donated blankets and food hampers were handed out, along with teams feeding bread and soup to the homeless. This wall followed the cleaning the park.
