Philoptochos

“Friend of the poor” is the meaning behind Philoptochos, and it describes perfectly the heart of this ministry. Philoptochos is the philanthropic arm of the Greek Orthodox Church, bringing together women who desire to put their faith into action through charitable outreach, fellowship, and faithful service.

Members support local families, community organizations, parish ministries, and humanitarian efforts throughout the year. Whether you are drawn to hands-on service, event coordination, or simply showing up for those in need, there is a meaningful place for you here. Participation provides rich opportunities to build lasting friendships while making a real difference in the lives of others. Through Philoptochos, women grow spiritually while serving Christ through acts of mercy, generosity, and love.
