Like many other Maltese firms, Ganado Advocates does a
considerable amount of corporate social responsibility that you
never hear about. However, this year's initiative needs
publicity for the simple reason that it wants to recruit
beneficiaries.
Project Anew will offer start-ups the services of this law firm,
managing partner Louis Cassar Pullicino explained.
This is by no means the firm's first foray into corporate
social responsibility. Three years ago, however, it put its
campaigns on a more structured basis, setting up a committee
chaired by one of the firm's partners to select suitable
beneficiaries, allocating a percentage of income – not
profits – for worthy causes. These were not tied itself down
to particular sectors and the recipients varied over time, with
last year's project having an emphasis on education, for
example.
