67 Minutes for Mandela Day with Archbishop Desmond Tutu
This week Top Billing visits a special Mandela Day initiative that aims to overcome conditions in under-resourced communities and give children a foundation for their education.
Top Billing's Jeannie D joins Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu at the V&A Waterfront in Cape Town where the Breadline Africa and the Desmond & Leah Tutu Legacy Foundation have teamed up to refurbish shipping containers and transform them into pop-up creches and kitchens. We then visit the Cape Flats community of Heideveld, to witnessed the effects one of these ‘pop-up creches’, ‘Little Bright Stars’, is having. Our crew and staff get so inspired that they can't help but get involved too!
Join us Thursday at 20:30 on SABC3 to celebrate Mandela Day and see what a difference 67 minutes can make!
You can also contribute: Books, blankets and educational toys are welcomed at Waterfront donation bins or via the Breadline Africa or Tutu Legacy Foundation websites.
