Philoptochos, “Friends of the Poor”

Philoptochos, “Friends of the Poor” one of the largest women’s organizations in the United States: preserves the sacredness of the Orthodox family through family concern, services, unity of action; promotes the charitable, benevolent, philanthropic and eleemosynary purposes of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America; formulates plans and methods to voluntarily aid the poor, the destitute, the hungry, the aged, the sick, the unemployed, the orphaned, the imprisoned, the widowed, the handicapped, the victims of disaster; and promotes participation in the activities of the Parish with the cooperation of the Priest and the Parish Council.  Much of the philanthropic and benevolent work associated with Saint Anna Church falls under the umbrella of our Philoptochos Chapter. The Philoptochos meets the first Tuesday of every month.
