Programme supporting innovative social initiatives and capacity building of civil society organisations.
The ''Points of Support'' Programme is addressed to Greek private non-profit and volunteer organisations, as well as social cooperative enterprises. The Programme aims, on the one hand, to support original small-scale actions with maximum social impact for the benefit of vulnerable social groups and, on the other hand, to empower and build the capacity of the above civil society organisations.
The "Points of Support" Programme is a collaborative initiative of the John S. Latsis Public Benefit Foundation, the TIMA Charitable Foundation, the Captain Vassilis & Carmen Constantakopoulos Foundation, the A. G. Leventis Foundation, the A.C. Laskaridis Foundation, the Costas M. Lemos Foundation and the KIKPE Public Benefit Foundation for Social and Cultural Work. The new round of the Programme is coordinated by the Bodossaki Foundation.
