PRESIDENT'S NEW MESSAGE
My Dear Fellow Evrytanians,
Greetings to everyone as we continue to move forward with our lives during the pandemic. This has been a most unusual summer for us all as we celebrated vacations and family get togethers differently than other years. Although the coronavirus has altered our everyday lives and brought a halt to many of our activities, the Evrytanian Association continues to work steadfastly to fulfill its purposes and obligations. It is with great joy that we learn that there have been no cases of the virus in our beloved Evrytania. But, it is also with great concern that we learn that, due to the lockdowns, our friends and families there are suffering economically with restrictions on work and travel contributing to unemployment and causing a significant downturn in the local economy dependent on tourism.
Humanitarian Relief & Children with Special Needs
Thank you for your past generous donations, we ask for your support to continue this outstanding program. We hope this year’s plea will...
Scholarships & Application
