HSBC Malta Foundation launched a charitable initiative to continue supporting local NGOs

The HSBC Malta Foundation is proud to announce its latest charitable initiative aimed at continuing to support local communities. With the invaluable support and generosity of the HSBC Malta employees and suppliers, the Foundation donated a wide range of essential items to various NGOs across Malta. The initiative focused on providing much-needed supplies to help NGOs assist their service users effectively. The donations included stationery items, refillable and reusable water bottles, food for the Foodbank Lifeline Foundation and Caritas Malta, books for the ALS Malta bookshop, and quilts and blankets for shelters. Additionally, Fondazzjoni Sebħ received a special donation of men’s clothing to distribute to those in need.

HSBC Malta is committed to supporting local shelters by providing quilts and blankets to NGOs such as YMCA, Fondazzjoni Sebħ, RISE Foundation, and Building Bridges for the upcoming Winter season. This initiative ensures that vulnerable individuals have access to warmth and comfort. The bank also contributed food items to the Foodbank Lifeline Foundation and Caritas Malta, addressing food insecurity and supporting families in need across Malta.

In collaboration with the ALS Malta, the HSBC Malta Foundation donated a selection of books to their bookshop, empowering the community through the joy of reading and supporting ALS’s ongoing efforts.

This initiative aligns with HSBC Malta’s Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) goals by promoting community welfare, social equality, and sustainable resource use. Furthermore, it supports the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly No Poverty, Zero Hunger, Quality Education and Reduced Inequality.

HSBC Malta believes in giving back to the community and making a positive impact on the lives of those around us. We are honoured to support these incredible organisations and help them continue their vital work in our community. This initiative reflects our commitment to corporate social responsibility and our dedication to building a brighter future for Malta.

“We believe in the power of community and the importance of supporting those who need it most,” said Glenn Bugeja on behalf of the HSBC Malta Foundation. “Our initiative aims to provide essential resources that can make a real difference in people’s lives and empower organisations to continue their outstanding work in our society.”
