JET commemorates Nelson Mandela Day 2021

Mandela Day is commemorated annually on the 18th July, a celebration of our collective power to create a global movement for good and make a positive impact on the world.

Commemorating Nelson Mandela Day, through his life-long defence of freedom and justice, Tata Mandela embodies one of JET's core values: Being people centered. "A fundamental concern for others in our individual and community lives would go a long way in making the world the better place we so passionately dreamt of." 

The COVID-19 pandemic is an unprecedented global challenge and the Nelson Mandela Foundation has joined with partners to support South Africans and their government in their fight against the virus. Here are some ways you can take part.
