Over the past two weeks, Caritas Malta has had a flow of requests for help from persons who have a drug-related issue or from their families. The pressure for help follows two editions of the television programme Xarabank dedicated to drug addiction and the work being done by Caritas with persons who want to rehabilitate themselves.
Caritas Malta said that this was an all-round show of solidarity, involving the Xarabank Team who dedicated much time to the production of these two programmes, the Public Broadcasting Services, the telephone and mobile companies, the Caritas Staff as well as the clients undergoing rehabilitation programmes and their families.
Caritas Malta said that the sum of €92,551 raised during the Programme emphasised most of all the solidarity of the Maltese people with persons who were seeking Caritas’s help.
