The Good Samaritan is a social medical center serving women and children refugees in downtown Athens
The Need
As a result of civil uprising, violence, famine, and hunger, many families from Northern Africa and the Middle East continue to flee their homes, seeking refuge within European borders. For these asylum seekers, Greece has become a gateway into the European Union. Upon arrival, however, smuggled refugees are faced with the reality of a crippled economy and little to no infrastructure to assist with the basic necessities of food, housing, and medical attention.
Our Response
Hellenic Ministry’s Health & Social Center consists of a medical clinic and learning center, specifically designed for refugee women and children. We provide practical services in the form of medical care, language classes, and various social services. By meeting some of these basic physical needs and equipping women with various skills, it is our desire to offer displaced refugees hope in very dark circumstances.
