Taking to social media, Puttinu Cares’ Angele shared a photo with Big Brother Malta contestant Karl, who presented a cheque of €2,400 for the NGO.
This follows a get-together organised by Karl and his friends and family and decided to do a good deed in the process.
This sum will go towards helping many people, especially children, continue to battle serious illnesses like cancer.
Well done Karl and loved ones!

In one of the largest and most impactful initiatives ever undertaken by a law student organisation in Malta, over 110 law students were given the rare chance to spend a full day with a Judge or Magistrate as part of a unique legal immersion programme.
Organised by the Junior Chamber of Advocates, the initiative was spearheaded by Projects Officer Shazney Vella and Projects Coordinator Michaela Vassallo, with strong support from the organisation’s President, Martina Cortis.
The programme aimed to bridge the gap between legal theory and practice by offering students firsthand exposure to the inner workings of the Maltese court system.
Over 30 members of the judiciary volunteered to participate, resulting in the formation of more than 50 student groups, each assigned to a specific member of the bench.
Throughout the day, students attended live court sittings, observed real-time legal proceedings, and engaged in insightful discussions about judicial processes, ethical obligations, and the day-to-day responsibilities of the judiciary.
This hands-on experience offered aspiring lawyers invaluable insight into courtroom dynamics and the realities of legal practice, helping them better understand the professional path ahead. It marked a significant step in fostering stronger ties between Malta’s legal education and its justice system.
