Here’s What The Istrina Telethon Has Collected In The Past Six Years
With the 29th edition of the Istrina telethon having kicked off, here are the amounts they’ve managed to raise for the Malta Community Chest Fund in the past six years.
With thousands of calls and donations every year, TV presenters pushing the telethon and various local businesses contributing to the cause, the telethon has come a long way.
From their iconic phrase “tgħid nilħquh il-miljun?” to collecting millions of euros every Boxing Day, the past couple of years have been some of the best for l-Istrina.
While 2018 was the telethon’s record year, having collected more than €7,130,000, the association’s last few editions managed to raise whopping sums of more than €5 million.
The telethon will be running until midnight, and will be accepting donations until then.
