Oħloq Tbissima telethon raises €441,590
Funds raised for MSSP missions
The annual Oħloq Tbissima charity fund-raising telethon raised €441,590 over the weekend.
The event raised funds for missions run by the Missionary Society of St Paul, the focus this year being on funding the provision of food, the provision of a water system and the building of classes in a remote zone of Peru.
Small apartments are also being built for young adults who have so far lived in institutions.
The event's organisers thanked companies who donated food and other items, people who made monetary donations and volunteers who gave their time for the telethon.
