Greek community of Melbourne

Philanthropy to Greece

Bill Papastergiaidis, President of the Greek Community of Melbourne, has been in contact with Nina Paskal, President of the Greek Society "Enotita" in Ukraine in response to the Russian invasion in 2022. The Greek community of Melbourne is making efforts to send medical supplies to the Ukrainian Greeks and provide logistic support for their evacuation to Greece and integration into Greek society as refugees. Almost all of Ukraine's ethnic Greeks, most of whom have resided in Ukraine for many generations, live in areas currently under Russian occupation, specifically the Donetsk Oblast.
