Air Malta raised €4,250 for the Breast Care Support Group Europa Donna Malta in October, breast cancer awareness month.

It said this morning the funds were raised through a joint initiative with Sky Gourmet, when cabin crew distributed pink ribbons in return for donations on selected flights.

These donations added up to €3,800 and another €450 were collected by Air Malta staff members through a bake sale.

The funds collected were presented by Chief Commercial Officer Philip Saunders to Gertrude Abela, president of Europa Donna Malta.

The money will go towards the printing of communication material to encourage women to choose healthy food and to practice some form of exercise – two important factors to lower the risk of having breast cancer.
