The Alfred Mizzi Foundation is supporting the Malta HistoricalSociety (MHS) programme of monthly lectures (2014-2015), which are free and open to the public.

Derek Vella, on behalf of the foundation, presented a sponsorship grant to the MHS president, Judge Giovanni Bonello.

The presentation was held in the main hall of the Maritime Museum in Vittoriosa, before the lecture by Caroline Tonna on ‘Painters and photographers’.

Mr Vella spoke about the foundation’s support for activities by the society, which not only are of great academic merit, but provide knowledge to those who attend them.

The society was founded in 1950 and since then has contributed extensively, through its activities and publications, to the study of the history of Malta, the diffusion of its knowledge and the safeguarding of Maltese historical heritage.

Next year will mark the first centenary of operations for Alf Mizzi & Sons Ltd, the parent company of The Alfred Mizzi Foundation. Aside from its economic contribution to Malta over these past decades, Alf Mizzi & Sons Ltd – particularly through the foundation – has also made an important contribution to the social and cultural spheres.

The continued support for the MHS is a prime example of this civic commitment.
