Social Service Assistance

If you know of anyone who has been experiencing a hardship and is in need of assistance please reach out to Father Nektarios.  Protecting an individual’s identity and situation is critical to our organization.  All inquiries, requests for information and other communications concerning these individuals shall remain private and confidential. 

Since Philoptochos is accountable to its members and donors, we follow procedures to determine if and how we can help most effectively.   These procedures apply to all levels of Philoptochos (National, Metropolis and Individual Chapters). Individuals seeking assistance must complete and sign an Application for Assistance prior to any aid being provided.  This application is for our recordkeeping and subject to confidentiality obligations.

St. Barbara Ladies Philoptochos welcomes new members to join us in continuing the tradition of helping those in need.  No one is too old or too young.  Be a part of a special group of dynamic women whose drive, dedication and heart help those who need it most. We are looking for women of all ages who are committed, enthusiastic and have a passion for helping those in need.  If you are self-motivated, excited to be an active participant in our Chapter, and are devoted to carry on our mission of philanthropy, bringing people together and spreading the love of our Orthodox faith, then we are looking for you. 

Please come join us at our next meeting to see what we are all about.

The funds we raise and the work we do supports worthy ministries on local, national, and global levels.

As a Chapter, our projects include Homeless Cooking, St. Michael’s Home visit, Saint Basil Academy, the Orthodox Christian Mission Center (OCMC), the International Orthodox Christian Charities (IOCC), National Philoptochos Social Services, directed funds for Cancer & Major Illnesses, Autism, Emergencies, Retired Clergy and Hellenic College/Holy Cross. We contribute funds to assist those in need during natural disasters, in times of crisis in our own community and events around the world. This charitable work is always done with discretion and kindness for the Glory of God and the betterment of all human beings.

Your stewardship is a critical element of our fundraising efforts. During the year, your personal participation level in the various activities organized by our Chapter is at your discretion according to your time and talents.
