Support Mandela 100 days 100 ways campaign
Durbanites to honour Madiba by finding 100 ways of making the city a better place in 100 days.
DURBAN citizens are invited to honour Nelson Mandela’s centenary by finding 100 ways of making the city a better place in 100 days. The innovative concept was launched this week by the Denis Hurley Centre in conjunction with other NGOs.
Every year around Mandela Day on 18 July (Mandela’s birthday) individuals, corporates, schools, churches and others opt to volunteer their time or make donations to help the underprivileged in the city.

This year, being the centenary of Mandela’s birth, the Denis Hurley Centre (DHC) working with other NGOs is encouraging a ‘Mandela 100’ – 100 ways to transform the lives of the poor in inner-city Durban, which can be enacted any time during a period of 100 days: from 30 May to 6 September, with 18 July in the middle.
If you are an individual or a group of friends or an organisation (school, corporate, faith group) and are looking for a way to celebrate Mandela’s legacy the DHC has created a list of 100 ideas with 100 contact people to help. Certificates will be issued to all who register their participation.
