Mandela Day Call to Action with SRDL This Mandela Day, join SRDL in celebrating young voices that matter! We are a nonprofit organisation helping children from underprivileged communities develop strong reading and writing skills. Through our Mabali Champs project, 10 of our learners have become published authors — telling real stories in their own voices. Now, we’re calling on YOU to help us show them their words are powerful. Here’s how you can support: 1. Pick one of our learner-created stories 2. Record yourself reading it aloud 3. Post the video on social media 4. Tag us: TikTok:@srdl\_tv Facebook: @srdl\@july2012 5. Use these hashtags: #AmabaliChamps #ReadForChange #MandelaDay #SunsetPaws srdl Your voice could inspire a child to keep writing, keep dreaming, and know they are seen. Volunteer. Read. Celebrate. Inspire.
Helpful tips
Stay safe
- 1. Don’t pass any personal information to people you haven’t met offline before.
- 2. When meeting one of your contacts offline for the first time, always be sure to arrange to meet in a public place.
- 3. Make sure that you are not left alone with someone that you have never met before.
- 4. Know where you’re going. If you’re headed off the beaten track or into an unfamiliar part of town, be sure you have directions and a GPS or map book.
- 5. If you feel unsafe, consult the person in charge and let him or her know.
