This year we celebrate Mandela Day with musical flair during the Vryfees Festival. Well-known artists will donate their time and talent as part of their 67 minutes to help raise funds for the University of the Free State (UFS) No Student Hungry Bursary Programme (NSH).
The UFS NSH Mandela Day Tribute Concert boasts artists such as Mathys Roets, Navi Redd, Corneil Muller, 3 x A Lady, Jacobus Silver and the 2014 Stage Door Winners, the Akasia Ser Group. Performances ranging from the warm acoustic guitar and vocals of Mathys Roets to the energetic acapela medley of Navi Redd promise to captivate and entertain the audience.
Angelo Mockie and Tonderai Chiyindiko, renowned for their excellent directing in numerous productions are proud supporters of the NSH Programme and hereby invite you to celebrate one of our country’s most inspiring icons while simultaneously contributing to a programme that changes the lives of top achievers at the UFS. All of the proceeds will be donated to the NSH Bursary Programme.
NSH was started in 2011 by Prof. Jonathan Jansen, Vice-Chancellor and Rector of the University of the Free State, and Mr Rudi Buys, Dean of Student Affairs. By offering students a small daily allowance, the NSH Programme aims to address food insecurity among students at the UFS in order to enhance their chances of completing their studies. The bursary is awarded on the basis of financial need, good academic performance, active participation in student life programmes and a commitment to serving the community.
Buy your tickets at Computicket or at the Vryfees Ticket Office at the UFS Campus and change lives with us!
