COMMEMORATE MANDELA DAY AT SANBI NATIONAL BOTANICAL GARDEN IN SOUTH AFRICA

The South African National Biodiversity Institute (SANBI) invites citizens of SA to visit our National Botanical Gardens (NBGs) during an ‘Open Day’ on Saturday 18 July in celebration of Mandela Day. These NBGs are situated in 7 provinces. The significance of this day is to offer garden visitors an opportunity to enjoy the richness of South Africa’s bio-diversity while contributing towards a worthy cause. Entrance into the garden will be free on this day; however, we request donations of sanitary pads or toiletries. By donating a pack of sanitary pads or toiletries, visitors will be contributing towards restoring the dignity of underprivileged school girls who miss about 7 days a month of schooling to avoid accidental embarrassment. Your contribution to this worthy course will contribute immensely in ensuring that we keep our girls at school. Open 08hh00.
