ST. HELEN WOMEN’S PHILOPTOCHOS The Greek Orthodox Ladies Philoptochos Society is an organization unique to the Greek Orthodox Church. It is the largest women’s organization in the United States and the second largest women’s religious philanthropic organization in the world. Each Greek Orthodox Church has a Philoptochos chapter that contributes to charities and responds to disasters on local, national and international levels. For 94 years, our St. Helen Women’s Philoptochos has assisted the poor, the victims of disease, disasters, and other catastrophic events. Additionally, we support other charitable organizations. As Philoptochos members, we are able to fulfill our mission by virtue of the women who support us...our members. St. Helen supports the many activities of the parish both through member volunteer time as well as financial means. We encourage all women of our parish, over 18 years of age, to become members. We meet monthly from September thru May. Please contact us for additional information. |
