The VentureMax Group has provided urgent financial assistance to the Dar Merħba Bik Foundation in Malta, funding essential repairs to its support van.
Dar Merħba Bik offers safe and therapeutic emergency accommodation for women and their children who have experienced violence, particularly domestic abuse. The foundation assists these individuals in rebuilding their lives and achieving their full potential, both at home and in the workplace.
The VentureMax Group’s donation covered the cost of critical repairs to the shelter’s van, which is used to transport the belongings of those relocating to Dar Merħba Bik’s secure shelter. The van required new tyres, repairs to the back door mechanism, rust treatment, and replacement of the passenger door window.
The VentureMax Group, which includes divisions such as TerraMedia, Xciting, and VentureMax, plans to continue supporting local charities and organizations as part of its ongoing Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program.
Justin Anastasi, CEO of VentureMax Group, said: “We want to play an active role in supporting foundations, charities and organisations across our local community and I couldn’t think of a better group to start this activity with than Dar Merħba Bik.
“The foundation does great work helping vulnerable women and children and this vehicle is an important part of that. This is just the start of our CSR work in Malta, and we look forward to helping many more people in future.”
A spokeswoman for Dar Merħba Bik added: “It’s very important for us to have a full-working van so we can move women, their children and possessions safely and with dignity into our shelter.
“We thank VentureMax from the bottom of our hearts for their help in sponsoring the urgent repairs to our van.”
