HSBC Malta Foundation recently sponsored the purchase of over 300 books, CD players and educational flash cards for Klabbsajf, an educational project part of Skolasajf.
Klabbsajf is the summer extension of the complementary education programme provided in schools to give children with learning difficulties the extra attention they require to improve their learning skills.
There are 12 Klabbsajf centres in Malta and Gozo that cater for children between the ages of seven and eight.

Over the past 11 years, HSBC has donated over €17,000 to Klabbsajf.
