Ministries - Hellenic Cultural Foundation

The Hellenic Cultural Foundation: Our primary mission is to support students at The University of Arizona who study modern and ancient Greek language, and to provide opportunities to students for archaeology experience in Greece and Cyprus. This fall we provided academic scholarships to three deserving students, and our Chris Limberis Fieldwork Internship went to one of our community members to work with Dr. Voyatzis this past summer in Greece at the Mt. Lykaion dig. Ms. Genevieve Milonas, St. Demetrios choir member and graduate student at U of A, successfully completed her summer fieldwork experience in Greece, using our Fieldwork Internship.

Coming up: Watch for more information about our Sunday evening, February 5, 2011 presentation on love themes in the ancient world by one of our U.A professors, Dr. Gil Renberg. Plus, delicious food and a great evening of companionship. For more information, contact Rip Economou, Chair of the Valentine's event. Tickets will be $20.00 (25.00 last minute purchase and at the door); children under 10 free, and student tickets $10.00.
