Zach Vella’s London‑to‑Malta Run Surges Past €71,000

Zach Vella’s extraordinary 2,700‑kilometre run from London to Malta has now raised €71,603, marking a powerful show of support for YMCA Malta’s expanding services. The fundraiser, which aims to reach €100,000, continues to gain momentum thanks to donations, shares and the growing community following his journey.

Vella is attempting one of the most demanding endurance efforts ever undertaken by a Maltese athlete 55 ultra‑marathons in seven weeks, crossing England, France, Switzerland and Italy before making his final approach toward Malta. Each day brings long distances, shifting terrain and intense physical and mental strain, with little margin for error. Yet the purpose behind the challenge keeps him moving forward.

All funds raised will go toward the extension of YMCA Malta’s Drop‑In Centre and the development of a Stage 2 Semi‑Independent Living Apartment, addressing the increasing need for safe, structured support for vulnerable individuals.

With the run now well into its second half, every contribution helps bring this project closer to reality.
