Overview

Madiba’s love, put into action. The Fund’s role has evolved, and a simple visual refresh couldn’t capture it. The logo needed to reflect what the Fund does in the world today. Our thinking was to unite past and future in one mark. Madiba’s handwriting brings his presence, authenticity and personal endorsement, while the sun represents a brighter tomorrow, with children at its centre. It signals a shift from one of many Mandela-linked names to the true bearer of his legacy, inviting people to believe in a future worth building, together, for children.
