19 COMMERCIAL maltatoday | SUNDAY • 2 SEPTEMBER 2018 LeoVegas supports 2018 Malta Pride THE mobile gaming company, LeoVegas.com, has announced that it will be the Proud Sup- porter of the 2018 Malta Pride. The 2018 Malta Pride week will take place from the 9 till the 16 of September, with the iconic pride parade and street concert held on Saturday, 15 September in Valletta. Malta Pride is a week-long celebration with different activities, with a main Parade and open air free concert. This year's theme will be 'Pride in the heart of the Mediterranean'. LeoVegas runs the award win- ning mobile casino, live casino and sportsbook and has offices in Malta, Italy and Sweden. At LeoVegas we are proud to be supporting the largest event of its kind in Malta. The main goal of this collaboration is to show LeoVegas' commitment in embracing diversity and equality in our workforce. Our vision is to create the greatest gaming experience and be the number one mobile gaming. Today we're over 400 employees at the Malta office. LeoVegas diversity of its work- force – be it race, ethnicity, gender, age, religion, ability, or sexual orientation, is a result of its success. Clayton Mericeca, Commu- nity Manager of Allied Rain- bow Communities said "We are excited to have LeoVegas supporting and participat- ing at Malta Pride for the 2nd year running. Their visible support sends a strong mes- sage to the LGBTIQ+ com- munity in Malta and abroad that there are companies who go beyond 'accepting every- one' but actually care in join- ing their voices of support to that of a diverse minority. We believe that a workplace that is visibly LGBTIQ+ friendly not only attracts competitive talent but a happy one too!" LifeCycle and Transplant Support Group campaign ahead of Organ Donation Week 2018 AS part of its commitment to- wards raising further aware- ness about organ transplants in Malta, LifeCycle (Malta) Foundation in collaboration with the Transplant Support Group, is holding a week-long campaign urging persons above the age of 16 residing in Malta to register their wish to donate their organs after death. Through the Organ Donation Week, being held between 3rd and 9th September 2018, Life- Cycle aims to get people talk- ing about organ donations with their families. The final objective is to increase the number of do- nors during the campaign. "The best treatment for per- sons suffering from kidney failure or renal disease is to receive a kidney transplant. Organ donation after death is a precious gift. While it costs nothing, no pain and no loss for the donor, but that organ donation can often save a life," said Alan Curry, founder of LifeCycle (Malta) Foundation and Managing Director at Chic Physique at Hilltop Gardens. "We are aiming to get people to talk about Organ Donation Week and to help save lives painlessly." "One organ donor can save up to eight lives. The same do- nor can also save or improve the lives of up to 50 persons by donating tissues," said James Muscat, Transplant Support Group's President and himself a donor. "Transplantation of organs in Malta has been carried out for almost 30 years. More than 400 persons have been given a second chance to life, thanks to organ donors who deserve our highest esteem. We advise persons who have the wish to donate their organs after death, to speak about it with their loved ones, and encour- age family members to register as well. It's one of the best gifts one can give to another human being." Visitors to Chic Physique Gym Studio and Sanya Well- ness Spa at Hilltop Gardens in Naxxar can pick up an Or- gan Donation flyer from out- side the studio and sign their name. One can also download an Organ Donation form from: www.organdonation.gov.mt Persons over the age of 16 years can register their wish to donate their organs after death or specify which organs they would like to donate. There is no age limit and even those that may have a medical condi- tion can also register. Activities during Organ Do- nation Week Members at Chic Physique can opt to take a Sufferfest Challenge of four classes in the week and participants' names will enter for a lottery draw. This is a mini LifeCycle in aid of renal patients.
