The sum of €2,000 was raised in aid of the Monastery of the Sisters of the Poor Clares, St Julian's (Sorijiet tal-Klarissi) by the Vikings Sailing Club following the successful sailing marathon organised recently.

The cheque was presented to the Mother Abbess by Alfred Mifsud in the presence of members of the VSC committee and two young marathoners, Paul Portanier and Daniel Fenech, who sailed for 32 hours to help raise funds.

Members of the public who did not have the opportunity to attend this marathon and are still willing to send in a donation, can either go personally to the monastery or send a cheque by post to: Monasteru Santa Klara, Mikiel Anton Vassalli Street, St Julian's.
