MeDirect Bank is supporting the Alive Foundation’s upcoming cycling trip to raise funds for cancer research. The event will see a group of more than 30 cyclists cover 1,000 kilometres from Berlin to Salzburg over 6 days and aims to bring the total amount raised by the Foundation since its inception to over €1 million.
Karl Farrugia, Senior Manager – Corporate Services at MeDirect Malta, said, “Over more than a decade, the Alive Foundation has made a massive contribution to cancer research in Malta, raising significant sums to fund Ph.D. scholarships at the University of Malta and to support specific research into breast and children’s cancers. Science is the key to tackling cancer and MeDirect is gladly doing its bit to support this great cause.”
Max Borg from the Alive Foundation, said, “The support of corporate sponsors like MeDirect is vital, not only in terms of the money we have raised for cancer research but also in helping to build awareness about our Foundation. As we prepare for another gruelling trip, we would like to thank the bank for their contribution.”
