The Malta Trust Foundation:
The Malta Trust Foundation (TMTF) has a specific purpose to develop initiatives that support young people and communities that are facing particular challenges and who are at risk of poverty or social exclusion. The Foundation (TMTF) brings together academics, psychosocial professionals, the business community, and civil society organisations with the aim of delivering a tangible impact in gaps within existing services. The Foundation stresses the importance of not duplicating current services and support, which are already being offered by other entities.  The Foundation seeks to support vulnerable communities through initiatives that are both educational and empowering in aiding individuals to reach their full potential, with an emphasis on projects of a psychosocial nature.  All initiatives are well-defined projects emerging from priorities in the social field, that are well researched, planned, and cost to ensure an efficient and effective service that is sustainable over the years.  The Foundation seeks the assistance of major audit companies to market research and analyse the cost of every initiative.
