Food Aid Programme for the Elderly

Food Aid Programme for the Elderly

Since 2014, the John S. Latsis Public Benefit Foundation in cooperation with the TIMA Charitable Foundation, has been supporting the Ladies Union of Drama, by meeting the needs of its elderly beneficiaries in terms of basic food supplies. In 2015, two social workers were appointed to organize and run the programme more efficiently which, in addition to food vouchers, offers social support and counseling for highly vulnerable individuals, such as families with elderly dependents, elderly people with unemployed children as well as elderly couples and elderly singles.

  • 74 families in the city of Drama receive food supplies on a monthly basis through this programme.
