PRESS RELEASE BY THE OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT

15 companies and entities join the strinacrowdfunding.mt initiative

15 companies and entities joined the strinacrowdfunding.mt campaign in aid of The Malta Community Chest Fund (MCCF).

During the launch of the third edition of this digital platform, President George Vella said that these businesses and entities voluntarily chose to be part of strinacrowdfunding.mt and committed to collect a small donation from each customer and pass it on to the MCCF during l-Istrina on 26th December. Some of the companies have created promotional initiatives like BCRS which, from 14th November until Christmas, will offer the chance to those returning beverage containers to the 300 Reverse Vending Machines to pass the deposit of €0.10c on each container to the MCCF.

“Fundraising cannot be limited to the 26th of December because there are 364 other days during which the MCCF continuously receives requests for help, especially from people with cancer who need expensive medicines that are helping them live longer,” said the President while reminding that in the face of these requests, the MCCF cannot refuse to help.

Simon Decesare, CEO of Eden Leisure Group, said that during the Christmas and New Year festive period they will be encouraging cinema, bowling and gym customers to make a small donation to those going through a difficult time while the Intercontinental hotel will organize a tournament for its customers with the money collected going to the strinacrowdfunding.mt fund.

The companies and entities that joined this strinacrowdfunding.mt initiative are Enemed, PAVI and PAMA, BCRS, Eden Leisure Group, Arkadia Foodstore, Benna, Gozo Channel, Maypole, Klabb Kotba Maltin, VIBE FM, Costa Coffee, Timecare Media, Federazzjoni Maltija Vetturi Antiki, Malta Motorsport Federation and Convenience Shop.
