The Order of Malta Volunteers in Gozo are continuously helping social cases in Gozo, the sick and requests for relief aid supplies in developing countries like Peru, Guatemala and Ghana. Another intervention was the assistance to a Russian mission based in Kursk and Tula.
The new request for supplies is for various cases in Gozo apart from projects in Peru and Ghana.
For those who wish to donate items, the Gozo Volunteers office in St George’s Square. Victoria, Gozo, will be open every Monday to Friday from next Monday, the 15th of July, between 9.00am and 12.30pm, (for the rest of summer till September).
The donations will be distributed according to the exigencies of the cases. Some other supplies especially first aid items, sewing machines and stationary will be deployed to Peru.
The officer in charge of the Gozo based organisation of the Order of Malta, Chris Galea stated that the Gozitans and foreign residents are often prompt to help us when we make such requests. He thanked those who have already donated several items.
The long list of items needed include food and drink supplies, including water, detergents for Gozitan families, stationary including Spanish books for a Peruvian mission, medicines, summer clothes, shoes and medicines for Ghana.
The Gozo based Knights of Malta decided to open the office in Victoria nearly everyday with the exception of weekends.
The Gozo based aid organisation also provides a special wheelchair ambulance for those who need special transportation for medical appointments and feasts.
The service can be contacted on 79 55 22 11.
