THANOPOULOS & MEGA Continue “Power of Joy” Program for Another Year
The 100% Greek companies MEGA and D. THANOPOULOS stand responsibly by children in need, launching a new social initiative titled “Dynamis Haras” (Power of Joy). Following the 2024 annual coverage, the program continues into 2025, offering extended annual support for psychological services and therapy sessions (speech therapy and occupational therapy) for the girls of the Agia Anna Christian Shelter Foundation.
“Power of Joy” program continues to focus on the evaluation, prognosis, and restoration of disorders related to Speech, Language, Communication, Learning, Organization and Execution of daily activities, as well as Movement, Writing, Reading, Play and Social Skills of the girls in need. Additionally, recognizing the importance of their psychosocial health, the program will cover —for a second consecutive year— the annual cost of psychotherapy sessions for the girls in need, thus contributing to their smooth psychosomatic development.
This initiative is part of MEGA's overall Corporate Social Responsibility program "Acts of Care" for Society.
The program is hosted exclusively at THANOPOULOS supermarkets, with the first phase already completed in 2024 and set to continue throughout 2025.
About the Organization
The Agia Anna Christian Shelter for Girls, founded in 1972, has been operating for more than 50 years. Still located in Nea Kifisia-Attica, at 24 Anoixeos Street, it was founded from the vision of two women to offer support to children in need, within a safe, family-like environment. As a child protection foundation, it is a non-profit provider of secondary social care services and operates on a non-profit basis.
It serves as a transitional housing facility for girls and, to date, has offered support to over 500 girls aged 4 to 18.
Beyond shelter, it provides accommodation, medical treatment, education, and psychological support.
Its operation is supported by an unpaid five-member commitee, an eight-member paid staff and numerous volunteers who generously contribute to the ongoing work of the facility at every stage.
