Betfair, sponsors of the Betfair Cup that saw Valletta FC triumph over Juventus recently, presented €3,000 (Lm1,287) to YMCA Homeless.
Betfair had promised to pay €1,000 for each Valletta goal scored during normal time.
Against the odds, Valletta equalised through Sebastian Monesterolo and finally winning on penalties.
Betfair increased the amount by an additional €1,000. On their part, Betfair staff raised another €1,000 to make it €3,000.
Dan Staples, head of marketing operations at Betfair Malta, hoped the donation would have a significant impact on the excellent work the YMCA carries out with the homeless.
Betfair said it intends to continue supporting local community projects.
