Ivan Filletti, Tezara Eve Camilleri, Keith Demicoli, Gianni Zammit, Gianluca Bezzina and Claire Agius Ordway, will be running or walking the Vodafone Malta Marathon to raise funds for The Inspire Foundation.

It’s a whole new year and a time for new resolutions. Few of us however are capable of keeping resolutions longer than a few days, or at best, a few weeks into the New Year… unless of course we have a higher motivation to help us through it. Running or walking a marathon for a charity could be that extra push you’ve been looking for. It will keep you motivated in your training, it will keep you focused, and best of all it will help you reach your personal fitness goals.

Last year, participants of the Vodafone Malta Marathon who ran or walked for Inspire, together raised the sum of €10,000. This year, Inspire has again been chosen as the official charity of the Vodafone Malta Marathon which will take place in February, and known personalities such as Ivan Filletti, Tezara Eve Camilleri, Keith Demicoli, Gianni Zammit, Gianluca Bezzina and Claire Agius Ordway, amongst many others, have chosen to make their miles count by attempting this gruelling task, in aid of Inspire.

“We invite others to join us by walking or running with us on the day,” said the Inspire team, “but if running or walking is not your thing, you can support us by helping us fundraise the much needed funds,” said Gianluca Bezzina.

“I’m not an avid athlete, I’m better at singing of course, but I will do my very best to help a charity that I believe in. This year it’s Inspire, as I hope to finish the half marathon and fundraise as much as possible to help such a good cause,” said Ivan Filletti.

Send an SMS with the name of the personality you would like to support to the following numbers:  €2.33 – 50617359 | €4.66 – 50618080 | €6.99 – 50618926 | €11.65 – 50619215

For example if you would like to support Gianluca Bezzina with €6.99 send an SMS with the word ‘Gianluca’ to 5061080 or if you would like to support Tezara with €11.65 send an SMS with the word ‘Tezara’ to 50619215.  Online donations can also be made through www.inspire.org.mt.

“Whatever you do to contribute, your help will be going towards Inspire’s disability programmes. So on behalf of our clients and their families, we thank you wholeheartedly” said Antonello Gauci – Inspire’s CEO.
