Banif Bank makes largest contribution to L-Istrina
Banif Bank yesterday made the largest contribution to L-Istrina donating €292,340 to the Malta Community Chest Fund.
The hefty sum was collected through this year’s President’s Charity Fun Run which Banif supported for the fourth consecutive year.
The Fun Run was another record-breaker, with more than 13,000 runners and walkers. The team was led by Banif Bank Chairman Joseph Sammut who presented the sum to President and Mrs Abela, on behalf of the bank.

Bear in mind that Banif is not the largest bank in Malta and yet it is still the largest contribution. In June the Times had published this...

It shows pretty much the profits of the banks in 2011 and how Banif raised the bar for other profit-making companies to really give something back!

Credit should go to the persons donating (the runners and the walkers).

It's only fair that Banif Bank is advertised as the best donor in l-Istrina as most media lauded HSBC and BOV as being the best benefactors.

This is a huge amount for such a small bank. Hopefully, it could mean that they have turned the corner.

not that i want to sound picky and credit were is due. Certainly nothing hides the fact that banif matched contributions for the fun run however if other banks pulled out a larger amount out of their own pocket it would not be the right thing to say the largest contribution was banif's!
