MOAS Donates 285 Panettones To Families And Children Of Migrant Centres In Malta
With the festive season well underway, MOAS has remained committed to its mission of supporting the most vulnerable communities, gifting 285 panettones to families and children of migrant centres in Malta.
MOAS acknowledged how the impact of armed conflicts in various parts of the world, which have resulted in unprecedented levels of human migration, has created an atmosphere of uncertainty and isolation.
“Recognising the challenges faced by migrant communities in Malta, especially during the holidays, MOAS aimed to use this opportunity to spread a positive message of peace and solidarity,” it said in a statement.
The traditional Italian delicacy was gifted to everyone, including all families and children residing in the AWAS-run migrant centres, as well as residents of the housing facilities Osanna Pia Home run by the Salesian of Don Bosco, and Peace Lab.
“This donation is a gesture of hope and solidarity. In these challenging times, showcasing kindness towards the most vulnerable is crucial,” MOAS Founder Christopher Catrambone said.
“Through this small act, MOAS emphasises the importance of civil society outreach and community support. Every act of generosity, no matter how small, contributes to fostering a better tomorrow,” he continued.
“Our heartfelt thanks go to the MOAS donors and supporters, as well as the partners — Lidl, PCutajar Foundation, and Fastdrop — for their invaluable contributions,” they said.
Well done to all involved!
