Eight New Classrooms in Tanzania Thanks to Missio Malta and APS Bank
Missio Malta and APS Bank are collaborating to build eight new classrooms at St. Thomas Aquinas Seminary in Arusha, Tanzania. These classrooms will provide students from underprivileged communities with access to education and the opportunity to develop their skills and improve their future.
“Education remains a central pillar in personal development, and for this reason, Missio Malta is pleased that, with the support of APS Bank, it can carry out meaningful projects in this field across the world,” says Robert Farrugia, Head of Communications and Fundraising at Missio Malta.
“We are pleased to see this project now moving into the next phase, which involves the completion of these eight classrooms. The local community had already started the construction of the project, however unfortunately, despite their best efforts, they were unable to secure full funding. With the generous support of APS Bank, Missio Malta will now help ensure the project is completed.”
“These classrooms will allow students to receive their education in properly structured groups of students instead of mixed-age groups, enabling them to benefit from better quality education,” added Robert Farrugia.
The support provided by APS Bank is part of the Bank’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programme. In fact, APS Bank contributes generously to a variety of projects in the fields of arts, life-long education, and sustainability. This is done through an annual public call for applications, open to those who wish to benefit from the initiative.
