APS Bank was proudly announced as a key sponsor of the I’mPOSSIBLE Programme – an educational initiative developed by the International Paralympic Committee to promote inclusion through sport, during the Malta Paralympic Committee’s (MPC) Annual General Meeting held on Friday 6 June 2025.
The I’mPOSSIBLE Programme helps students understand the values of courage, determination, inspiration and equality. By learning about and taking part in parasports, young people are encouraged to see beyond disabilities and embrace inclusion in their daily lives.
Locally, the Programme has been running since the 2020/21 academic year. Seven schools are already involved, with MPC aiming to expand to three to five more each year. The Programme includes classroom lessons and hands-on parasport sessions, such as sitting volleyball, boccia, goalball, and athletics for visually impaired athletes. It also features school visits by paralympians and para-athletes.
Jeremy Vassallo, CSR Manager at APS Bank, said: “We’re proud to support a programme that puts inclusion into action. I’mPOSSIBLE helps young people understand the strength in diversity, and we’re excited to play a part in shaping a more accepting and inclusive generation.”
The programme also helps MPC reach young people with disabilities and introduce them to sport, supporting future participation and talent development in parasport.
