Citadel makes CSR a priority

A group of Citadel employees recently teamed up to form the company’s first corporate social responsibility team. The initiative has helped instill awareness of the challenges of the local community, thereby generating more participation in such events.

A CSR programme was created to provide staff members with various opportunities to participate in projects aimed at supporting the local community and sustaining the environment.

The company has opted to help various entities, including charitable institutions and individuals in need of support. The company also donated money to two entities.

It supported Edward Aquilina, who swam between Malta and Gozo in aid of Caritas Malta, and raised money in aid of Equal Partners Foundation’s ‘Stepping out programme’, which helps autistic children gain confidence and become more independent. The donation will partly finance

the cost of the programme for a 14-year old autistic girl.
