The first charity telethon of the year resulted in the collection of a significant amount after Siggiewi’s Dar tal-Providenza collected €1,409,085 in donations during their New Year’s Day Event.
Dar tal-Providenza Director Fr Martin Micallef expressed his hopes that such a feast of generosity at the start of the year “represents the start of a year full of respect for every person without distinction, and willingness to help those who need support,” closing off the telethon at midnight.
The President of Malta George Vella, Archbishop Charles Scicluna and a number of other recognisable local politicians and personalities were in attendance.
