The Stelios Philanthropic Foundation is to honour 1,300 key workers, who helped battle the coronavirus pandemic, with €40 gift vouchers each, totalling €52,000.
The voucher can be redeemed at Alphamega supermarkets, as part of the “titanic battle which they carry out each day”.
“In these difficult times which our country is facing, we must stand in solidarity with those who night and day are tirelessly making efforts to protect public health,” Sir Stelios Haji-Ioannou said.
The supermarket chain itself will cover 10 per cent of the sponsorship while booklets will be available via the state health services (Okypy).
