Floods & Fires in Greece: National Philoptochos is committing $25,000 to assist with relief efforts in Greece following the devastating fires and floods. These catastrophic events have caused immense suffering and loss in Greece, and National Philoptochos stands in solidarity with the affected communities. National Philoptochos is working closely with the International Orthodox Christian Charities (IOCC) to ensure our funds are effectively allocated to provide essential support to those affected. Philoptochos chapters and supporters are requested to forward their contributions to the dedicated fund, understanding that these funds will be held until we receive and review project proposals from IOCC. Your generosity will play a crucial role in aiding the affected communities in Greece during this challenging time.
