Alpha Bank donated to six social organizations in Greece to help more than 870 children from vulnerable families begin the school year with necessary supplies.

The bank continued its support of the DESMOS NGO’s “Back to School” program, providing fully equipped school bags and materials. Representatives from Alpha Bank and DESMOS recently delivered school supplies to the Hatzikyriakeio Children's Protection Foundation in Piraeus, with Alpha Bank Chairman Dimitris Tsitsiragos present.

Alpha Bank also supported four social grocery stores and two child protection institutions, located in Korydallos, Chalandri, Metamorfosi, Salamina, and Katerini, as part of its broader commitment to education. Tsitsiragos stated that Alpha Bank believes supporting education is a crucial investment in equal opportunity and the future of society. The DESMOS NGO runs the “Back to School” program annually, providing age-appropriate school supplies to children in need.

The Hatzikyriakeio Foundation is a long-standing Greek organization that provides shelter, care, education, and psychosocial support to girls from vulnerable backgrounds, and Alpha Bank has a history of supporting its work.
