Nelson Mandela International Day
18 July
As every year, the theme for Mandela Day is “Take action, inspire change!”
This year, volunteers will go to the Brownsville Community Culinary Center, Brooklyn.
The Center is committed to offering healthy, accessible cuisine to residents of one of the most marginalized neighborhoods in New York through their eatery.
UN volunteers will finish the preparation of lunch and ice cream to be served to community members and connect in celebration of Nelson Mandela’s ideals of service.
The activity is organized by the NYC Mayor’s Office for International Affairs, the UN Department of Global Communications, the Office of the President of the UN General Assembly and the Permanent Mission of South Africa to the UN, in collaboration with the Melting Pot Foundation.
