eCabs will be making 30 vehicles and drivers available to Boxing Day charity telethon L-Istrina, the cab company has said.
The vehicles, which have all been rebranded to raise awareness of L-Istrina, will be used to collect financial pledges from businesses and individuals across the country. Four other eCabs staff members will help coordinate the vehicles throughout the day.
L-Istrina is a 12-hour charity telethon held every year on Boxing Day to raise millions of euros for the Malta Community Chest Fund Foundation. Fastdrop, a specialised delivery service provider and part of the eCabs group of businesses, will also contribute vehicles and staff to this initiative.
Mark Mizzi, Head of Finance & Operations at the Malta Community Chest Fund Foundation, thanked eCabs for its continued partnership. eCabs malta Head of Operations Luke Spiteri said the company was proud to be backing L-Istrina.
Beyond the 12-hour telethon on Boxing Day, eCabs and Fastdrop will also be helping L-Istrina staff collect funds pledged after the Boxing Day event.
