“There can be no greater gift than that of giving one’s time and energy to help others without expecting anything in return” - Nelson Mandela 🇿🇦 We would like to take this opportunity to thank the community, military, volunteer groups and the staff of @korucamp and MyAfrica for showing up today and selflessly taking 2 hours of their day to clean up our beautiful town for a good cause. Full social post and blog post coming soon…. 🇿🇦 #mandeladay #madiba #nelsonmandela #givingback…
