The President of Malta, H.E. Prof. Guido de Marco, recently was presented with a cheque of Lm6,500, collected during activites organised by Skolasajf students. During the past four years, the students attending Skolasajf have donated Lm25,000 to the Malta Community Chest Fund.

President de Marco commended all the students who helped in these activities. He praised especially the children of 'Carmelo Caruana Primary School', of Safi, who raised most funds. President de Marco reminded the pupils present of the work carried out by the Malta Community Chest Fund. This philanthropic organisation, pointed out the President, seeks to alleviate the misfortunes of other people or families who are in need.

President de Marco gave the headmaster of 'Carmelo Caruana School' a commemorative token for the school, saying that the late Minister Carmelo Caruana would have been proud indeed of this school.
