THI support the operation of THI’s Summer Youth Academy. The project is dedicated in providing support to more than 100 children from all backgrounds in Attica, aged 14-18. Children participate in a special two-week camp, centered around basketball, aimed at fostering personal growth and a sense of community. The camp offers a variety of activities, including basketball sessions, mentorship programs, and excursions. The Academy provides valuable experiences that focus on enhancing self- discipline, self-esteem, and the ability to collaborate with others toward shared objectives. Additionally, the program emphasizes the development of essential soft skills and, activities related to emotional intelligence (EQ), preparing the children for success both on and off the courts.
The Hellenic Initiative (THI) is a global, nonprofit, secular institution mobilizing the Greek Diaspora and Philhellene community to support sustainable economic recovery and renewal for Greece and its people. Our programs address humanitarian aid through strong nonprofit organizations, led by heroic Greeks that are serving their country. They also build capacity in a new generation of heroes, the business leaders and entrepreneurs with the skills and values to promote the long term growth of Hellas.
