Gogos for Mandela

With the World Cup underway in South Africa, a group of South African grannies have taken to the field to raise money for 46664.

Called the Gogos for Mandela - in South Africa "gogos" means grandmothers - they have set up their own football league in the rural province of Limpopo.

To celebrate all that Nelson Mandela has done for them, these ordinary South African women have come up with an extraordinary idea to raise money so that 46664 can continue the work that Madiba began. They've decided to use their football skills to entertain the world.

They are making a series of videos in which they recreate highlights from the 2010 World Cup tournament in South Africa. They give us a different vision of the spectacular goals, saves, and defensive tackles that the whole world is talking about this summer...
