46664 & Mandela Day Update

From jgSarah / via the News

A group of South African grannies have taken to the field to raise money for 46664. Called the Gogos for Mandela - in South Africa "gogos" means grandmothers - they set up their own football league in the rural province of Limpopo. They made a series of videos which recreated highlights from the 2010 World Cup tournament. Watch some of their videos here. For more info on 46664 visit 46664.com.

Also, don't forget about Mandela Day on July 18th. Nelson Mandela Day is a global initiative proposed by 46664 and the Nelson Mandela Foundation as a day to honor and celebrate Nelson Mandela and his legacy. Get more details here.

Why you do not participate in this year Mandela Day?
Soon this year that is reasonably close to my house.
My soul cries.

Thanks for posting this very cute video of these grandma ladies for Mr. Nelson Mandela's noble cause.
I love the music too; I have always loved African music.

Pleased to help out.

Nelson Mandela is one of the greatest role models for the world,
as well as Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King.

These men have done so much for love and peace an they`re always
a great inspiration for me.

Love and Blessings to South Africa
and the whole world...
