The Pan-Cretan Association of America made an appeal to all its members to provide financial aid to Cretans in Greece due to the difficult economic situation in the country.
According to an announcement by the President of the Pancretan Association of America (PAA), Giannis Manos, a special Committee on Charities has been formed so that the financial aid to Greece can be promoted.
The money that will be raised from the charity will be sent to the Archbishop of Crete, Irinaios, and then will be given to homeless Cretans or families in need. Moreover, an amount will be given to Volunteering Doctors in Crete.
On his part, the President of the Pan-Cretan Association of America , Giannis Manos, stated: “We would like once again to provide support to Cretans of Greece as we did in the past during similarly difficult times in Greece. Many Cretans of Greece that are in need are making calls to the Archbishop of Crete in order to ask for financial aid. I am sure that Cretans in America will contribute to the humanitarian work of the Archbishop of Crete, Irinaios”.
The major purpose of the Pan-Cretan Association of America is to collect money and send it to Greece twice, by the end of February and then in April. The money will be given to all Cretans in need throughout the island of Crete.
