maltatoday | SUNDAY • 10 JANUARY 2021 13 COMMERCIAL HSBC Malta Foundation donates €5,000 to Fondazzjoni Sebħ THE HSBC Malta Foundation has donated €5,000 to Fondazz- joni Sebħ to help it provide psy- chological assistance to children and adults recovering from mul- tiple traumas. Such help forms an integral part of an array of services provided by Fondazzjoni Sebħ aimed at establishing a nurtur- ing environment that promotes emotional growth and resil- ience so people can reach their full potential, regardless of the challenges and difficulties they may be facing. Currently, Fondazzjoni Sebħ is offering care to 37 children who live in residential care in a safe, loving and nurturing envi- ronment, and to 7 women and their children in the residential shelter and after care service, for survivors of domestic vio- lence. Yvonne Mallia, Direc- tor of Fondazzjoni Sebħ, said: "The foundation's services rest on three main pillars: children in care services, domestic vio- lence services, and family and community services. Thanks to the HSBC Malta Foundation's help, we can offer extended therapeutic support to people in need of our servic- es." Caroline Buhagiar Klass, Head of Human Resources and Corporate Sustainability at HSBC Malta said, "The HSBC Malta Foundation has placed special importance on support- ing foundations who work on assisting the most vulnerable in our communities. Fondazz- joni Sebħ does amazing work, particularly with children who have suffered a great deal, and we are committed to support- ing this work which will also deliver a broader positive so- cial impact."
