Nelson Mandela Foundation

South Africa's Deputy President, Kgalema Motlanthe, was the keynote speaker at the launch of the Nelson Mandela International Day Campaign 2014, at the Nelson Mandela Centre of Memory on 8 April 2014.

The event signifies the commencement of the Nelson Mandela Foundation's global call to action for public service.

Speaking of the day as more than superficial "do-gooding", the Deputy President described the Mandela Day ethos as building cultures of service that inspire positive change in communities.
