Magic Monday

Visionaries In Action across Africa initiated Magic Monday in 2001, The UN International Year of the Volunteer, as a forum for potential Volunteers and Volunteer Hosting Organisations to meet face-to-face. Y-Fm and Scala Restaurant originally provided the setting for this exchange of ideas, challenges and success storiess. It now hosted at MediaPark, courtesy of Media24 on the first Monday of every month from 6:30pm - 8:00 pm. Entrance is free.

Its a networking opportunity for people who share a passion for service to humanity. Even if your day job is in the commercial world, here's your chance to meet people who champion not-for-profit networks, other Volunteers, Volunteer hosting organisations, and Volunteer Agencies to meet, share and energize!
