Social Services – Apply for Help

How to qualify:
All proposed financial assistance grants are reviewed and must be approved by the two Co-Chairs of the Social Services Committee and subsequently by the Philoptochos officers who sign all checks: National President and Treasurer, or designee.

What if I’m not an Orthodox Christian?
Non-Orthodox persons who seek our help are provided with helpful next steps and referred to local resources.
