BOV PIGGY BANK CAMPAIGN COLLECTS €312,000 FOR L-ISTRINA

22nd Edition of BOV L-istrina Piggy Bank Campaign

Bank of Valletta today reaffirmed its long-standing commitment to the community by presenting its annual donation to L-istrina during the live broadcast on national television. On behalf of Bank of Valletta and the BOV Foundation, a contribution of €312,000 was presented by BOV Chief Executive Officer Kenneth Farrugia, accompanied by Ernest Agius, Chief Operations Officer, and members of the Bank’s senior management team. The donation was made up of €62,000 contributed by children in Primary and Secondary schools across Malta and Gozo, and a donation of €250,000 by the Bank.

Speaking during the presentation, Mr Farrugia highlighted the spirit of solidarity that defines L-istrina and mirrors the values upheld by the Bank. “L-istrina is a powerful reminder of what we can achieve when we come together as a nation. Through the efforts of the BOV Foundation, we remain committed to supporting initiatives that offer tangible support and hope to those facing the most challenging of circumstances. This donation is our way of recognising the invaluable work carried out by the Malta Community Chest Fund throughout the year.”

Apart from the Bank’s own financial contribution, this donation once again includes funds raised through the L-Istrina BOV Piggy Bank Campaign, an initiative that encourages children across primary and secondary schools in Malta and Gozo to make small donations, fostering values of generosity, empathy, and social responsibility from a young age. Now in its 22nd edition, the L-istrina BOV Piggy Bank Campaign continues to demonstrate how collective action can make a meaningful and lasting difference in people’s lives.
