| Graz, 19th March 2013 (APA/OTS) - With an emotional speech
Luvuyo Hlanganani Mandela opened the "Nelson Mandela No-Moscow
Primary School" in the South African village of Qunu on 15th March.
"To offer the children in Nelson Mandela's birthplace a proper
school education is very important to me and our family. We would
like to thank the Lyoness Child & Family Foundation for its social
commitment in South Africa", Nelson Mandela's great-grandson
emphasised in the presence of international guests, including Meme
Mable Kgagara, Nelson Mandela's assistant, Hubert Freidl, CEO
Lyoness, Nina Passegger, Director Child & Familiy Foundation as well
as representatives of the South African Ministry of Education. |
Famous project patron of the charitable school project is Dr. Nelson
Rolihlahla Mandela, winner of the Nobel Peace Prize.
In Nelson Mandela the Lyoness Child & Family Foundation has found a
famous patron and name giver for the school. The 94-year-old winner
of the Nobel Peace Prize and former South African president has
always been committed to children and their right to education. That
is why the Mandela family has been supporting the school project of
the Child & Family Foundation in South Africa since the beginning of
the project in July 2012. "Qunu still is an extremely poor region
and education is an effective tool for the children living here to
break the cycle of poverty", Garça Machel, Nelson Mandela's wife,
acknowledges the importance of the new school in that region.
The "Nelson Mandela No-Moscow Primary School" has been realised
within only nine months. All financial means were provided by the
Lyoness Child & Family Foundation. The modern school building will
replace the desolate previous building from now on and provides an
adequate learning environment for about 228 children. The premises
include besides seven class rooms and sanitary facilities, a
nursery, two handcraft rooms, a computer room, a library and a new
play and sports ground.
