We were truly excited to welcome the minister of Infrastructure and Transportation, Mr. @christosstaikouras, who visited us here at the Organization’s facilities this morning.

The minister was informed about our social work, while he discussed with our representatives regarding the issues our society is facing. He was quite intrigued by our initiative to create OLGA, the first digital app, which allows women who are victims of gender-based violence, to receive help via text messaging. He expressed his admiration for our charity work, while pledging to stand by us!

We thank him kindly!

 

After an initiative of the Urban Rail Transport’s employees and their soccer team, which is well-known for their charity work, a unique love tournament was held today, at the Acharnaikos stadium in Menidi, in favor of our beloved Aggeliki-Nektaria.

On this charity event were present, the minister of Infrastructure and Transportation, Mr. @christosstaikouras, the mayor of the municipality of Acharnes, Mr. Spiridonas Vrettos, the CEO, Mr. Athanasios Kotaras, the president of Acharnaikos team, Mr. Iliadis Aris, and the orthopedic doctor of Acharnaikos team, Mrs. Athanasiou Pagona, who supported in action our Organization's efforts for our beloved Aggeliki-Nektaria.

Just before the game came to an end, we received an honorary award for our Organization’s multiannual charity work! The award was bestowed by the CEO OF the Urban Rail Transport, who we kindly thank for his touching words.

We kindly thank the Urban Rail Transport’s employees for supporting Aggeliki-Nektaria, a true fighter who nevers stops smiling, in spite of the challenges she has been facing, ever since she was just an infant!

One more proof that we can make it happen, if we are united!

If you ask a child what their family means to them, they will reply: “my everything”! 

Family constitutes the keystone of every society. This day is here to remind us of the irreplaceable role of family, which instills values and morals to its members, while promoting their personal growth. 

So let us all celebrate this day, while reminding ourselves just how unique and amazing the love we give and receive from our family members truly is!

Today, we are celebrating Life, Offer and selfless Love!

We are honoring the woman who gave birth to us, who raised us, who stands by our side in every step of the way and who is showering us with love whenever we ask her to do so!

Today all mothers are celebrating, whether they are adoptive or biological.

Happy Mother’s day to all moms out there!

Let the holy light fill our souls with Love, Hope, Strength and Solidarity!

Happy Easter!
