Of course the most difficult thing during this period has been not seeing my kids. We've been FaceTiming, but you know that's not enough. My son is obviously very, very sad that he hasn't been able to see his dad. This is just another one of those hurdles we must go through.
Made it home from NYC just before lock down. Stay indoors, keep hands clean. It's important, whether you have the disease or not, to eat very healthy. And that you don't consume alcohol because alcohol reduces the strength of the immune system," he said. Mandela said tea made with hot water, ginger, garlic, turmeric and honey can "really help your immune system".
Register Sign In. South Africa. As a youth, if I may still call myself that, living the Madiba magic is the courage to dream, and I am not just saying this because Nelson Mandela was my grandfather. The courage to push your dream until it becomes a reality. And to do what you can until that dream comes true.
But unfortunately these days we live in a hyper-consumerist and a hyper-capitalist world. And in that pursuit for consumerism, we have lost our humanity and lost touch with what is really important in life and for mankind, as championed by Madiba.
South Africa is a country that is expected to stand on a pedestal of values and morality, because we are a country that produced this great Father of the Nation and international icon. But granddad always taught us to create our own legacies and to give back to society. The question is, where and how is this child going to learn the value of things and responsibility? You have to question what kind of adults these rich kids will grow up to become. Will they add value in society or are they already taking it away?
So as we celebrate the Centenary of Madiba, these are the some of the questions we should be looking into. What type of world are our children inheriting? It does not mean that just because I am a Mandela, I am privileged and that I do not have to work, for example. Privilege unfortunately can sometimes drive one to the wrong side and it sometimes does not work for the good of society, and we have seen that happen here in this country and elsewhere in the world.
The world looks up to South Africa a lot. Compared to the rest of the world, South Africa is a country that is expected to stand on a pedestal of values and morality, because we are a country that produced this great Father of the Nation and international icon. These lessons from my grandfather are also about mentorship and encourage adult readers to take up mentoring the youth. This was his key value. Ndaba describes what is was like to first meet his iconic grandfather at age 11 when Nelson Mandela was finally released from prison — and then live with him in the Presidential Palace shortly thereafter.
Ndaba tells tales and shares the inspiring, and often amusing, anecdotes told to him directly from his doting grandfather. Now in his presentations, he is able to demonstrate to companies how they can take advantage of the skills and hard-learned lessons Ndaba himself has endured, giving businesses the confidence to follow his lead and create these same kinds of opportunities for themselves in what is now a global hotbed of potential.
He also offers his insight as a leader and advocate for AIDS education that can benefit any nation battling with this disease and the toll it takes on a mortal and emotional level. As Founder and Chairman of the highly successful Africa Rising Foundation , Ndaba shares his wealth of knowledge and gives you the tools you will need to build a charitable organization from the ground up, or enhance your existing efforts.
Showcasing what he has learned, Ndaba breaks down how to create and manage a successful philanthropic enterprise in this informative and easy to follow presentation. Ndaba addresses the critical issue of how education and interconnectivity leads to employment in all areas — from the largest universities, to the smallest local schools.
We were extremely appreciative of his willingness to go above and beyond in his engagement with us.
