Mazars – CSR programme focusing on youths – funding opportunity

As part of the 25th Anniversary initiatives, Mazars in Malta launched a €25,000 CSR scheme which will fund youth-based projects for a better future. This scheme, which will span over three years, will mark Mazars’ established presence in Malta, further linking the firm to the local community, and its future with that of Malta’s youths.

The scheme involves supporting five youth-oriented NGOs and/or student associations over three years, with a financial contribution totalling €5,000 each, spread over this period. Mazars in Malta is encouraging such NGOs and associations to submit their proposals for youth-focused initiatives aimed at harnessing the potential of youth, and thus securing a better future for our society.

An online application form is to be completed by the applicant of the proposed project on Mazars website.

Through the online form, the following information has to be included:

1. a brief description of the aims and objectives of the NGO or student association;
2. how the project will engage with youths and their respective involvement in the project;
3. a description of the proposed project or initiative, including its main deliverables;
4. the desired outcome, and beneficiaries of the proposed project;
5. the tangible elements that will be produced by the project;
6. a set of indicators to measure the success of the project.

Participating organisations are to send via email on csr@mazars.com.mt any supporting material or any queries you might have.

Applications shall open on the 4th of May, 2023. The funding made available by this scheme can be used to finance either a new or existing project intended to improve the future of youths in Malta. Proposals will be judged on the following criteria:  innovation, inspiration, creativity, effectiveness, feasibility, and above all, their impact on youth in the community. A framework to monitor progress, transparency and accountability throughout the implementation of the scheme will be introduced and maintained. This will be overseen by the specially set up selection committee.

Submissions of the online form will close on the 15^th of June. The organisations and respective projects selected to benefit from this scheme will be communicated by the end of July 2023.
