Foundation U collected €202,855 from the TV marathon in September. The Maltese people have once again shown their generosity despite the many other marathons taking place. It is important to remind everyone what the funds we collect go towards.
We have worked hard so that we can purchase a mammogram for a Maltese HopeXchange hospital in Ghana, more life-saver jerry cans for various families within the reach of the Sisters of Charity in Cameroon, Chad and Central Africa, generators for three schools and two clinics taken care of by the Sisters of Charity in Pakistan and prostheses (artificial hands) for people suffering from leprosy.
In the coming months Foundation U will continue to provide information on where the funds collected are going.
The foundation would like to thank all the companies that offered sponsorships, prizes to be distributed during the TV marathon and donations, as well as all the volunteers who helped make the marathon a success.
Special thanks go to those who made a donation by post, telephone, SMS or online and to all those who pledged a donation in favour of one of our four projects.
As always, we pray for allthose who help us in one way or another.
