The Ball of the August Moon, a traditional event held at Verdala Palace on the first Saturday of August, was organised this year under the Presidency of Myriam Spiteri Debono in aid of The Malta Community Chest Fund.
During the event, President Spiteri Debono expressed heartfelt thanks to the attendees, emphasising that their contributions are vital for the Malta Community Chest Fund to continue supporting those in need, including chemotherapy patients.
Speaking at the event, the President conveyed gratitude on behalf of those unable to express it themselves, stating, “If you could see the eyes of those who, in their hour of need, come knocking at our door, and whom we are able to help thanks to your support, you would certainly feel that you are making a noble gesture to others.”
She also acknowledged the ongoing support from individuals and companies that assist the Malta Community Chest Fund throughout the year.
President Spiteri Debono also praised the efforts of the Ball’s organising committee, chaired by Marchesino Daniel de Petri Testaferrata, for ensuring the event’s success. Marchesino Testaferrata, in turn, extended his gratitude to the companies and entities that contributed to the successful organisation of this year’s Ball.
