From the 17th to the 28th of July 2013 visitors to Gateway Theatre of Shopping will be able to write a message to Nelson Mandela on one of the ten glass pillars that will be displayed at Gateway\u2019s exhibition area opposite the Info Desk. Messages can include; Birthday wishes, Nelson Mandela Day pledges and messages celebrating and honouring Madiba.<\/p>\n

The ten glass pillars are a celebration of Mandela\u2019s life. \u201cGateway would like to embrace and celebrate the life of the man who is known as \u2018The Father of the Nation\u2019,\u201d says Akash Maharaj, Centre Manager at Gateway Theatre of Shopping.<\/p>\n

At the end of July, the glass pillars will be moved to the Centre Management garden where they will be on display.<\/p>\n

Gateway\u2019s Blanket Drive
\nTo celebrate Nelson Mandela Day on 18 July Gateway Theatre of Shopping is hosting a blanket drive to support C.S.R.M (Christian Salvation and Restoration Ministries). C.S.R.M is committed to demonstrating compassion by addressing poverty through community relief and development. The non-profit organization aims to uplift the lives of the underprivileged. Abuse against women and children, the elderly and orphans is the organization\u2019s key focus.
\nVisitors to Gateway from 17 to 28 July are welcome to donate a blanket to Christian Salvation and Restoration Ministries. A box will be placed at the Nelson Mandela stand at Gateway\u2019s Garden Court where blankets can be dropped off.<\/p>\n

\u201cOvercoming poverty is not a task of charity; it is an act of justice. Like Slavery and Apartheid, poverty is not natural. It is man-made and it can be overcome and eradicated by the actions of human beings. Sometimes it falls on a generation to be great. YOU can be that great generation. Let your greatness blossom.\u201d
\n? Nelson Mandela<\/p>\n
