Slais Butchers in Rabat has begun its annual tradition of donating free meat and other food items to local families in need, just in time for the festive Christmas season.
Speaking to Malta Daily, Alex Falzon, owner of Slais Butcher, shared that this heartwarming initiative is not new. For years, the butcher shop has given back to the community during Christmas, a tradition started by Falzon’s father and proudly continued ever since.
To ensure help reaches those who need it most, Falzon employs various methods, including reaching out through social media platforms. One such platform is the popular Facebook group “People Who Like or Live in Rabat”, where Falzon invites members to share information about families in need of support during the holiday season.
Falzon also confirmed to Malta Daily, that Slais Butchers have donated to and helped out several local charities such as “Smiling With Jerome”.
Slais Butchers has been a cornerstone of the Rabat community for generations. Established by Falzon’s grandfather over 150 years ago, the shop has been lovingly passed down through the family. Today, Alex and his siblings proudly manage this iconic business, keeping its legacy alive.
Through their charitable efforts, Falzon and Slais Butcher exemplify the true spirit of a traditional Maltese Christmas, bringing warmth, generosity, and support to their community, especially to those in need, in this season of giving.
