What started as a vision to provide senior care and housing for our Greek elders in need, the Hellenic Foundation has evolved into a multi-faceted social services provider and resource for an even broader range of people and programs within Chicago’s Greek and Pan-Orthodox communities.

​

Today, the Hellenic Foundation meets its original vision of caring for our elders through its senior in-home care service. With years of experience and a dedicated, multi-lingual staff of home health care professionals, the Hellenic Foundation helps seniors from a variety of ethnic backgrounds stay in their own home when possible, with dignity, respect and sensitivity to their unique cultural backgrounds that they deserve. 

​

With its Grant program, the Hellenic Foundation seeks to harness the commitment, creativity and ingenuity of a vast array of local not-for-profit organizations that provide key programs and services to the Greek and Orthodox communities. Each year the Hellenic Foundation awards grants to qualified recipients whose missions and programs enhance and preserve our Greek language, culture, heritage and religion in Chicago.

​

And with its Emergency Fund, the Hellenic Foundation can provide critical help to those in need during crisis situations. 

​

Through these self-funded programs and its collaboration with other like-minded foundations, the Hellenic Foundation strives to fulfill its mission of helping those in need and improving the lives of people in Chicago’s Greek and Pan-Orthodox communities.
