We are a new, independent, small private philanthropy that simply aims to collect money and support local Greeks in need, however we can.

This started last Christmas, when a bunch of friends put money together and spontaneously went to gift money to an orphanage in Thessaloniki. The feeling was amazing, and it was easier than we thought — all it required was the will to think, organise, and act.

RIDIS Philanthropy is based on that same principle. We aim to take action at least once a year — each Christmas — and grow along the way, so that we may have a bigger impact each year.
