Humanitarian Relief & Special Needs
Humanitarian Relief for Evrytania
A plea to all Velouchi members and friends
This plea went out to all our members in a separate letter a month ago, asking you to count our many blessings and send a donation to restock the two “Pantopoleia” (food banks) in the municipalities of Karpenisi and Agrafa and to help our brothers and sisters in need. Please make your check payable to the Evrytanian Association, mark it “Humanitarian Relief for Evrytania,” and mail it in the enclosed envelope we sent you.
All donors’ names will be published in our January–March issue.
Έκκληση προς όλα τα μέλη και τους φίλους
Κάνουμε και πάλι σήμερα έκκληση μέσω του περιοδικού μας προς όλα τα μέλη μας και σας παρακαλούμε να βοηθήσετε με τις δωρεές σας για να συνεχίσουμε τον εφοδιασμό των δυο Παντοπωλείων που έχουν δημιουργηθεί στους Δήμους Αγράφων και Καρπενησίου, έτσι ώστε με την αλληλεγγύη μας να συμβάλουμε κι εμείς στην ανακούφιση των οικογενειών εκείνων που έχει κτυπήσει η μεγάλη οικονομική κρίση. Γράψτε την επιταγή σας στην Ένωσή μας «Evrytanian Association» με την ένδειξη «Humanitarian Relief for Evrytania» και στείλτε τη στα Κεντρικά μας Γραφεία.
Children with special needs program
We need additional contributions to support and increase the number of children served. It is a special honor to donate to this outstanding program that has given our Association recognition for our caring philanthropy. You may send in any amount you wish, but for $1,500 a year you can “adopt” a specific child for a whole year.

Phone: 704-366-6571
Thank you for your past generous donations. We ask for your continued support of this outstanding program, and we hope this year’s plea will once again touch your philanthropic and Christian hearts.
The Welfare Department of Evrytania and the Representative Committee of our Association in Greece, specifically Mr. Pantelis Vlahos, select the children who qualify for this program.
At this time, we are able to support only 10 children with special needs. With your generous donations and support, we can increase the number of children supported.
Children who qualify for the Special Needs Program
-
are in a family receiving welfare
-
are under 18 years of age
-
have a chronic physical or mental disability that requires medical and family attention, and full-time care
