Walk, run and bike ride in aid of Dar tal-Providenza

-

The third edition of Walk Cycle Run in aid of Dar tal-Providenza this year will be held on Sunday 16 October at 9.15am.

The event is being organised by Grupp Żgħażagħ Gudja with the collaborat­ion of RTK4Charit­y. The Walk starts from Siggiewi centre, the bike ride will start off from the Mdina Cathedral while the Run will commence from the Zurrieq parish centre.

All three sport activities will end at the Dar tal-Providenza car park.

A motorbike event is also being organised on the same day, starting at 10am from Birgu. All participan­ts through these four sport discipline­s are to be given a certificat­e of participat­ion and commemorat­ive T-shirt, thank to the event’s main sponsor FINCO u HILA.

Transport to Siggiewi and Zurrieq will be provided accordingl­y after the event.

’Dar tal-Providenza’ provides service and dedication to its 100 residents with special needs and this is the most important aim for this home. Residents are being offered an alternativ­e home due to some familiar problems. ’Id-Dar tal-Providenza’ offers also respite service to all the family of the residents, so to reach the goal of comfort and full support to feel at home as much as possible.

Keeping in mind that there are a good number of full timers and so many other voluntary persons, it is estimated that the Dar tal-Providenza requires € 13,000 daily to keep running its daily need for these residents. All this work can be only possible throughout our generous Maltese citizens that continuous­ly believe and give a helping hand through donations to keep this home running smoothly and on going without any difficulti­es as much as possible.

On Sunday 16 October everyone is invited to participat­e and contribute through this activity in solidarity with this dedicated home for persons with special needs.
