Last month Air Malta staff raised €630 for Island Sanctuary which will go towards the food and medication of 110 dogs. 

The money was donated during a visit to the sanctuary by Air Malta staff. The staff were welcomed by the hard working volunteers at the sanctuary who gave them a tour of the premises.

Yvette Camenzuli, one of Air Malta’s staff members who helped with collecting the funds, said: “People should be reminded that when they adopt an animal companion they must remember that it is a big responsibility, one that means a lifetime commitment.”

‘The Island Sanctuary Association’ is a voluntary and non-profit making association responsible for the running of Island Sanctuary, a no-kill dog shelter located in Malta. More information can be found on Island Sanctuary’s website at www.islandsanctuary.com.mt and on their Facebook page – The Island Sanctuary Malta. 

This assistance forms part of Air Malta’s Corporate Social responsibility initiatives through which the airline supports organisations that work hard to assist the local community.
