National Philanthropy Day: Celebrating and Embracing the Cause
“You cannot mandate philanthropy. It has to come from within, and when it does, it is deeply satisfying.”
Azim Premji
As a Greek company, we are proud to say that “Philanthropy” – the love for humanity, is a Greek word that represents the selfless interest of fellow beings and first appears in this context by the famous philosopher Socrates in 390BC.
Through the centuries, philanthropy has been and continues to appear in various forms, from individual initiatives and donations to corporate politics, NGOs and international movements/actions.
Based on these notions, November 15th was recognized as the “National Philanthropy Day” originally in the US, thanks to the continued efforts of a notable philanthropist and lawyer named Douglas Freeman in 1986.
The purpose of this day is to celebrate those who are dedicated philanthropists and their actions that making the world a better place and assure a more sustainable and optimistic future for all of us.

This medical-humanitarian organization was founded in 1990 and spreads its activities across the globe, from Japan and Argentina to Turkey and the US.
The fundamental principle of the organization is that humanitarian/medical assistance actions do not separate and do not make exceptions according to anyone’s gender, race, sexual orientations, political or religious beliefs, etc.

SOS Children’s Villages-Greece
Another notable organization with main mission to help families to formulate a caring and healthy environment for their children. However, if that is not possible, this NGO undertakes the heavy work of raising and educating these children. The organization operates multiple structures from Children’s villages and youth centers to creative workshops and educational centers.
Support children and make the future society better, here.
Ark of the word is an organization that became reality due to the continued efforts of Father (Priest) Antonios. The organization provides support and protects mothers and children and at the same time, it is highly prioritizing the education of those children. During the last years, the Greek society has recognized and embraced the work of the ark and we hope you do the same by following the link below:
