L-Istrina Charity Telethon Raises €2 Million In A Few Hours
L-Istrina, Malta’s annual Boxing Day charity telethon, has passed the €2 million mark after a few hours.
“This is a living miracle,” President George Vella said. “This money is the fruit of the kind hearts of the people of Malta.”
Now in its 26th year, L-Istrina raises funds for the Malta Community Chest Fund to allow people to receive the specialised medical treatments they need.
The 12-hour channel is being broadcast on all Maltese TV channels as well as online.
Almost €6.5 million were raised last year, while the current record stands at just over €7 million.
