A football and five T-shirts signed by Gary Neville will be auctioned on Saturday prior to the Premier League match between Manchester United and Sunderland in aid of the annual charity TV marathon L-Istrina.
The auction, organised by communications and entertainment provider Go, will be held at the Manchester United Supporters Club, in Sta Venera, at 2 p.m.
Go presented the Community Chest Fund, which organises L-Istrina on Boxing Day, with a donation of €36,984.80 (up by €7,1938 over last year’s figure), representing the company’s revenue share from donations made via fixed line and mobile during last year’s edition of the charity marathon.
The company, which supports other events organised by the Community Chest Fund including Rockestra and the President’s Fun Run, said it also helped by waiving call charges and other expenses mainly associated with phone-in donations during the nationwide fundraising initiative.
