The eight edition of the BOV Marigold Volleyball Marathon in aid of the Dar tal-Providenza, was inaugurated by President Marie-Louise Coleiro Preca this evening. She praised the hard work undertaken by the home and the dedication of the support workers and volunteers who went out of their way to make the event possible year after year. Home director Fr Martin Micallef thanked the public for their donations during Friday's Xarabank programme when more than €260,005 were raised for the Home. The marathon, he said, brought the values of solidarity, voluntary work and sports to the fore. The marathon, being held at the Home, will run until Sunday. A big screen has also been set up for visitors who wanted to visit to be able to follow the EUFA Euro 2016. A specially designated area for children has also been set up. Contributions can be made on 5170 2012 (€15), 5180 2013 (€25), SMS 5061 8944 (€6.99) BOV Mobile Pay subscribers can donate on 7932 4834.
