BOV supports SOS Eden Campaign

Bank of Valletta is supporting the SOS Eden Campaign.

George DeCesare, manager of Bank of Valletta's Zejtun branch, presented the sponsorship cheque to foundation president Bro Martin.

Bro Martin thanked the bank for its support and encouraged other institutions or individuals to present donations to the SOS Eden Campaign.

Established in 1992, the Eden Foundation is a non-governmental, non-profit, charitable organisation. At the moment, the foundation educates and gives support to 343 students with learning disability.

Running at a daily loss of Lm500 and with an additional 50 students on the waiting list, the situation is hardly sustainable.

Set up with the aim of partnering individuals with learning disabilities, in order to help them achieve full inclusion to the best of their abilities by gaining access to mainstream education, employment and leisure activities, the foundation seeks to lead its students towards an independent life.
