Pragmatic Play celebrates Earth Day with $30K+ donation to Majjistral Park in Malta

Content provider to the iGaming industry Pragmatic Play has made a €30,000 donation (about $31,200) to Malta's Majjistral Nature and History Park, as part of the celebration of International Earth Day on April 22.

In a press release, the company also announced its commitment to plant a number of seedlings in the first natural national park on the Mediterranean Sea island, in order to guarantee the park's longevity. 

Julian Jarvis, CEO at Pragmatic Play, said: "Protecting and supporting the environment we live and work in is of huge importance to all of us at Pragmatic Play, so International Earth Day was a date in our calendar that we naturally had to celebrate. 

"Majjistral performs an important role in maintaining and promoting the natural beauty and history of our island and we're delighted to be sponsoring the nursery, and contributing to its survival serves as a testament of our commitment to the local community," he added. 

Last Friday we celebrated International Earth Day with a €10,000 donation to Majjistral Park, which will go towards sponsoring their plant nursery.

Majjistral Nature and History Park is Malta's first natural national park. It is named after the northwest region or wind – ‘majjistral’ – in the Maltese language, and was declared a national park by the Government of Malta in September 2007.

Pragmatic Play's donation accompanied a planting event that occurred on April 29. This is the latest in a string of contributions to local projects and organizations on the island where the company has its company office.  

The Majjistral event follows previous charitable donations across a range of causes that include environmental, social and health care. Last month, Pragmatic Play announced it contributed €18,000 ($19,000) to two established autism causes during World Autism Awareness Month.
