APS Bank is proud to announce its continued dedication to local sports initiatives through its corporate social responsibility (CSR) efforts. Participation in sports promotes physical health, fosters teamwork, and strengthens community ties, aligning with the Bank’s commitment to enhancing overall well-being and social cohesion.
Recently, APS Bank became an official sponsor of the Maltese Olympic team in preparation for the Games of the XXXIII Olympiad in Paris. This partnership reflects the Bank’s efforts in empowering Maltese athletes in their pursuit of Olympic selection and excellence.
Beyond this, APS Bank has supported various other sports activities. Earlier this year, the Bank backed the World Karate Championship, SKSM Malta, and the Malta Chess Federation. Additionally, APS Bank financed a second-hand FISA-standard coastal coxed, quad rowing boat for the Siggiewi Rowing Club. This initiative enables a fully inclusive rowing training programme for athletes with and without disabilities, allowing them to train together safely and effectively.
Rachael Blackburn, Head of Culture at APS Bank, commented, “We are honoured to support these diverse initiatives. Our collaboration with different stakeholders allows us to extend our impact across multiple sports disciplines, promote healthy lifestyles, and foster a sense of pride in our talented athletes. By investing in these programmes, we are not only supporting individual excellence but also contributing to the strength and unity of our community.”
