Cresta Shopping Centre invites shoppers to make their mark on Mandela Day

Published: 16 July 2012

Mandela Day on 18 July is not only a special day for South Africa, but a global event as the world celebrates the life and times of this elder statesman. To honour Madiba, Cresta Shopping Centre is inviting the community to leave a personal birthday message for him and make a small donation to their chosen charity.

Cresta events manager, Phiwo Madubela says; “Madiba’s legacy inspires people from all walks of life, and because of this we would like to create a ‘67 Minute Pledge Wall’, so our customers can be part and parcel of the birthday celebrations and make a difference in the lives of those less fortunate.”

The pledge wall will be located in the Woolworths Court between 12:00 and 13:07. After donating R10 to charity, shoppers can draw an outline of their hand on the wall and write a personal birthday message for Madiba. The birthday messages will be passed on to the Nelson Mandela Fund.

“Although not everyone is able to offer a full 67 minutes to charity on Mandela’s birthday, many can donate a few minutes of their time along with R10, and in so doing become part of our Madiba Pledge Wall”, says Madubela.

For further information about the Madiba Pledge Wall at Cresta, contact centre management on 011 678 5306.
