This Mandela Day, we spent our 67 minutes with Ladles of Love to help alleviate hunger and provide food relief to people in poverty-stricken communities, as well as attempting to break the World’s Guinness Record of the largest food mosaic!
“It is in your hands to create and a better world for all who live in it”
Nelson Mandela was not only the first democratically elected South African president, he was a much-needed voice that promoted peace, equality, and justice all around the world.
On Mandela Day, 18 July, everyone is encouraged to spend 67 minutes of their time in service of helping others in need. These 67 minutes are in appreciation of the 67 years that Nelson Mandela spent fighting for social justice, equality, and human rights for all. Source

This year their aim was to attempt to break the World Record for the largest food can mosaic in the shape of Nelson Mandela’s portrait in both Cape Town and Johannesburg!
Other ways we could assist were with sandwich making, peeling and chopping vegetables and knitting squares for blankets!
The result? We assisted in breaking the World Guinness Record for the largest food can mosaic, thousands and thousands of sandwiches made, and more!
Let’s continue to keep our Tata Madiba’s spirit alive through the commitment to build a prosperous, fair, inclusive world, leaving no one alive.
