On Mandela Day, the Oxford University Press (OUP) staff came together in a spirit of unity and compassion to give back to the community. We celebrated the day by visiting St. George's Home for Girls in Wynberg, a registered Child and Youth Care Centre to spread joy and extend a helping hand to the incredible children under the home’s care. OUPSA staff assisted in putting together party packs and gifted them, along with cupcakes, to the home. We further assisted with cleaning the indoor premises, specifically vacuuming the rooms that had been damaged due to flooding. Additionally, staff donated preloved clothing and perishable food items and OUPSA donated a new washing machine to replace the broken one at the home. “It always seems impossible until it's done.” – Nelson Mandela
