Another Generous Donation from Greek-Australians

On Saturday 8 March we had the great pleasure to welcome to MCCH Mr. Constantine Papagianopoulos,  a representative of the Greek-Australian organization “Ambassadors of Greece”.  He brought, for the second time in seven months, a significant contribution of medications for the clinic.

It is gratifying and important for us to see people respond and become active to help those most vulnerable in this time of crisis – especially when it is done by Greeks from abroad.  The “Ambassadors of Greece” made their first donation in September of 2013, collected in cooperation with the Greek Orthodox Community of Melbourne and Victoria thorough eight Greek schools.

This time, the donation came from the “Ambassadors of Greece” working in cooperation with the members of the Cretan Fraternity and the Greek community of Melbourne

Below is part of a letter from our Greek-Australian brothers which came with their generous and supportive donation.

Today, once again, the Greeks of Melbourne are at your side.  The Ambassadors of Greece have informed us of your sacred mission carried out by all the volunteers and doctors at the Metropolitan Community Clinic at Helliniko.

With the cooperation of the members of the Cretan Fraternity and the Greek community of Melbourne, we collected 12,890 AUD for the purchase of needed medications

We donate this to you with much love, from far-away Australia and we hope in this way to help the needy patients of your clinic.  We purchased the medications in Greece, and in this way, we are trying to bolster the Greek economy

Our support will continue in the future.  Together and united, Greeks from all over the world, as Ambassadors of Greece, can accomplish a great deal.


The efforts of the “Ambassadors of Greece” demanded a high level of coordination and a tremendous effort at every step.   All of our volunteers and our patients deeply thank our Greek-Australian compatriots who have shown us love in action.
