The Melita Foundation celebrates five years of making a difference.

The Melita Foundation is celebrating five years of activity during which it has supported numerous charities, non-governmental organisations, and innovative projects. Focusing on enhancing digital skills, fostering creativity, and preserving Malta’s heritage and environment, the Melita Foundation was established in 2020 with an initial allocation of funds from Apax Partners, Melita’s shareholders, until 2019.

Over the past twelve months, the Melita Foundation has extended its support to various organisations, from environmental groups like Nature Trust Malta and Zibel to heritage organisations like Din l-Art Helwa and the St John’s Co-Cathedral Foundation. It has also committed resources to helping children in need or managing difficult circumstances and to educational projects for migrants, fostering a sense of inclusivity and community.

Professor Tanya Sammut-Bonnici, Chair of the Melita Foundation, said, “Looking ahead, the Melita Foundation is committed to expanding its support for projects within our pillars of creativity and digital skills, which involve vulnerable and disadvantaged groups, including, but not limited to persons with disabilities, the elderly and children at risk. With support from Melita Limited’s shareholders, we aim to provide more long-term support for programmes that have impacted people’s lives.”
