AHEPA “Hellas” District 25 members attended the grand inauguration of the 3rd Special National Guard Unit’s (3rd ETEΘ) new clinic at the “Lieutenant Colonel (PZ) Nikolaos Katountas” military camp in Lagkada, Chios, on Monday.

AHEPA Greece wholeheartedly supported the initiative, launched by AHEPA National, which contributed €60,000 for the complete renovation and operational restoration of the clinic. Supreme President E. Chris Kaitson requested Past Supreme President Savas Tsivicos attend the event, the sponsorship having begun under his watch. Additionally, AHEPA Greece extended its deepest gratitude to EYEONIX and Brother Nikos Chatzis for their generous donation of €6,000, which covered the remaining expenses, making the project’s completion possible.

Honoring the ceremony with their attendance were the following:

His Eminence, Archbishop Elpidophoros, Deputy Minister of National Defense, Thanasis Davakis, Chief of the Hellenic National Defense General Staff, General Dimitrios Choupis, Chios Parliament Member and former Minister, Notis Mitarakis, AHEPA Past Supreme President Savas Tsivicos, AHEPA Past Canadian President, Xenophon Skoufaras, and AHEPA Greece Governor, Mr. Nikos Dimitropoulos.

This new clinic stands as another tangible testament to the profound ties between the Greek diaspora and Greece, as well as AHEPA’s commitment to addressing the vital needs of the Armed Forces in border regions. In this regard, AHEPA continues its multifaceted mission with unwavering dedication, fostering social cohesion, solidarity, and the bond between Hellenism and the homeland.

Thank you,

E. Chris Kaitson

Supreme President
