How to spread love and #ServeLikeMandela

Many would agree that the act of service comes from a place of love. It is selflessness and a sense of duty to others that inspires us to give. What better time to show our humanity than the month of love, February, which is also synonymous with sharing feelings of love, warmth and tenderness?

At the Nelson Mandela Children’s Fund (the Fund), this has been an opportune time to kickstart our campaign #ServeLikeMandela, a call to all of us to give of ourselves and show love to those who need it most. This is through our various programmes, namely Child Survival and Development, Child Safety and Protection, Youth Leadership Programme, Sustainable Livelihoods Programme and our flagship project, the Nelson Mandela Children’s Hospital.
As we all know, Mandela was deeply passionate about our children and youth. He once said, “There is no keener revelation of a society’s soul, than the way in which it treats its children.”
This February, we’re asking you to share Mandela’s love for children and join us on our mission to improve the lives of children.

How Our Programmes are Leading the Way
This quarter, our programmes are focusing on key themes pertaining to serving the greater good for young people in our country. These programmes fall under our five-year strategy: 
 
Child Survival, Development and Thriving – First 1000 days of life
Child Survival, Development and Thriving has partnered up with The Centre for Community Justice and Development (CCJD) to launch a joint programme in Pietermaritzburg. The programme aims to implement a food and nutrition security project focused on child survival and development. The goal is to strengthen the care system for the child’s first 1000 days of life.

Child Safety and Protection
Child Safety and Protection (CSP) is ensuring safety for children at all times. The CSP therefore supports the work of grassroots organisations working to protect children in vulnerable contexts. This is done through workshops and supporting children and their families to understand and know how to make the law work for them when they may be unsafe or violated.

Youth Leadership Programme
The YLP #ServesLikeMandela by amplifying platforms for youth to engage with issues they care about and lead change for themselves and communities. One of our activities this February includes a group coaching session with youth to empower them with skills in their areas of engagement.

Sustainable Livelihoods Project
Sustainable Livelihoods Project (SLP) is about empowering the youth, their families and communities to becomes self-sustaining individuals and groups. Reducing vulnerability to different kinds of things such as health risks, mental stress, and behavioural risks for income.
 
The Nelson Mandela Children’s Hospital
This state-of-the-art facility based in Parktown, Johannesburg continues to save the lives of vulnerable children dealing with life-threatening illnesses. Every child who is appropriately referred to this facility is never turned away due to an inability to pay.

  • A Dream Realised
‘How can there be only one dedicated hospital in the country for our children?’ When Madiba asked this question, he sowed the seeds of a challenge that would grow into a legacy.

The stories behind the planning for, fundraising and building of the Nelson Mandela Children’s Hospital are inspiring, personal, and sometimes heart-breaking. It was a long and arduous journey, beset with difficulties, but the dedicated team’s commitment and courage prevailed to create a living legacy that will truly impact the lives of children for generations to come.

My ex-husband and I had always managed to stay friendly after our divorce in February 2017. But I always wanted to get back together with him, All it took was a visit to this spell casters website last December, because my dream was to start a new year with my husband, and live happily with him.. This spell caster requested a specific love spell for me and my husband, and I accepted it. And this powerful spell caster began to work his magic. And 48 hours after this spell caster worked for me, my husband called me back for us to be together again, and he was remorseful for all his wrong deeds. My spell is working because guess what: My “husband” is back and we are making preparations on how to go to court and withdraw our divorce papers ASAP. This is nothing short of a miracle. Thank you Dr Emu for your powerful spells. Words are not enough.
