Stellenbosch University (SU) would once again like to present an opportunity to staff, in the spirit of Madiba and his vision to spread justice and freedom for all, to give a little of your time to make a change in an area that is close to your heart or by giving a little of your time to make a difference to the life of someone less fortunate.
Mandela Day is celebrated on 18th July 2013 and staff members are encouraged to give of their time during 12h00 – 14h00 on this day. This could be a wonderful team-building opportunity for SU Departments and Divisions.
So what are YOU doing on 18 July or any other day in lieu of Mandela Day? Here are some ideas to get you started:
- If you are already involved in volunteerism, plan to render your service to your charity/organisation/project of choice between 12h00 – 14h00.
- If you are looking for an opportunity in Stellenbosch, please see the two dates below:
18th July 2013
a) Youth Outreach - Jeuguitreik - Indawo Yo Lutsha! needs helping hands with various tasks and activities with which SU staff can assist. Please note, long term involvement with this centre is a possibility. (Read more)
NB! Transport will be available to and from the centre on the 18th July 2013
24th July 2013
b) Golden Key Toasties for Tummies
The Golden Key International Society will be hosting a Toasties drive. This entails an opportunity for individuals to prepare sandwiches (part of feeding scheme project) which will be distributed to the needy. The preparation will take place in the Vrouevereniging Hall, in the Neelsie between 12h00 – 14h00
