Air Malta staff fulfil 67 children’s dreams
Sixty-seven children had their dreams come true following the yearly Bake Sale organised by Team Air Malta – the airline’s Sport and Social Club.
“€1,415 were raised this year and this money was used to buy these children their preferred presents and make them happy,” said Vanessa Muscat from Team Air Malta. “We are very happy that through such activities we can make a difference and I wish to thank all Air Malta staff who contributed towards making this activity a success.”
The Bake Sale is a yearly activity organised by the club together with several Air Malta staff who donate their home-made sweets and sell them to their colleagues.
A number of entities also participated in this event and included The Sweet Almond Cakes & Bakes, LaNovita Caterers, Catrice Malta, Fat Harry’s Pub, James Caterers Ltd & YUE Bistro By Munchies.
Children’s Dreams is a project organised in collaboration with Aġenzija Appoġġ. This is the third year that Air Malta has supported this noble cause. The project aims to help parents who are facing various social difficulties realise their children’s dreams.
“Air Malta was one of the first Maltese organisations on the islands to drive forward the concept of Corporate Social Responsibility. Since its inception, the airline has contributed hundreds of thousands of euros and assisted various organisations and individuals in diverse fields including humanitarian, medical, philanthropic, cultural and heritage protection, sports and environmental initiatives. As the islands’ national airline, Air Malta carries its responsibility to continue supporting the local community. No other airline operating in Malta provides continued support to voluntary and non-governmental organisations like Air Malta. Such initiatives show the commitment and support the airline has towards the Maltese community,” added Stephen Gauci, Air Malta’s Head of Corporate Communications.
