The recent annual 5K Fun Run has been sponsored by Bank of Valletta partnered with Colour My Run Malta, as part of the Bank’s well-being challenge promoting physical, mental and financial well-being.

This was a first for the Bank, an initiative that saw part of the proceeds from each applicant going towards Richmond Foundation, coupled with a donation made by Bank of Valletta and other co-sponsors of the Fun Run.

Bank of Valletta CEO Kenneth Farrugia presented the donation to Ms Daniela Calleja Bitar, CEO of Richmond Foundation over the Christmas period. The presentation was held in the presence of Mr Nathan Farrugia from Colour My Run Malta and Mr Daniel Magrin, Head of Marketing and Product Lifecycle Management at Bank of Valletta.

The Bank’s CEO commended the invaluable efforts of the Richmond Foundation in fostering a healthy mindset within the community. “Our collaboration with Colour My Run Malta is an important aspect of our efforts in highlighting the importance of adopting a healthy, physical lifestyle. Being active and engaging in fun activities helps us steer away from the pitfalls of stress and routine.”

UN Limited founder (the Colour My Run organisers), Nathan Farrugia said that UN Limited is a fervent believer that exercise should be fun if we want to encourage non-athletes to stay active and lead healthy lifestyles.

Richmond Foundation’s CEO, Daniela Calleja Bitar commented: “Richmond is proud to partner with UN limited to celebrate the powerful connection between exercise and mental well-being. A special thank you to BOV for bringing Colour My Run 2024 to life, reminding us all that movement, colour, and community can brighten both body and mind.”
