Optimist club Malta

Lights, laughter, and life skills – drama brings joy to young hearts this summer! With support from The Melita Foundation, The Optimist Club of Malta is turning summer into stage time for over 120 children aged 7 to 10 across eight centres.

As part of the Ikber Magħna (Grow with Us) project, each centre will dive into drama sessions, where kids will learn to express themselves, build confidence, and create their very own play – culminating in a big talent show before school starts!

This project is especially for children facing challenges at home, giving them a safe space to learn, create and shine. It’s more than just theatre – it’s about teamwork, fun, and giving kids a voice, all while building brighter futures one scene at a time.

Making a difference together

Since starting in 2020, The Melita Foundation has backed many projects run by different groups and backgrounds. From local STEM skills for school kids in the Three Cities to global stuff like planting trees, ESG awareness, teaching maritime law and conservation and ensuring our heritage is well taken care of.
