Financial support amounting to $95,000 for associations, organisations and institutions was received by the Commissioner of the Presidency, Fotis Fotiou, on Tuesday from the President of the Cyprus Children's Fund (USA), Nikos Zittis, during a meeting with him.
As announced by the Presidency, the amount will be distributed to the Pancyprian Association of Parents and Friends of the Pediatric Oncology Unit of the Nicosia Makarios Hospital, Ronald McDonald House Charities Foundation, the Independent Social Support Body, the Theotokos Foundation, the Foundation of Parents and Friends of Children with Special Abilities, the Paphos Autism Association, the Margarita Liasidou Foundation and the Community of St. Luke.
Mr. Fotiou said that the financial support confirms once again the moral and material support that the Cyprus Children's Fund has consistently provided since 1975, as well as the general contribution of Cypriots in the diaspora to the country and its people.
He added that the genuine interest of the Cyprus Children's Fund Committee is reflected in its large and remarkable charitable work, through which it supports in various ways children belonging to vulnerable population groups, in order to combat the daily difficulties they face and thus improve the quality of their living conditions.
For his part, Mr. Zittis thanked both the Office of the Commissioner for the Presidency and Mr. Fotiou personally for the excellent cooperation and assured that the Cyprus Children's Fund will continue its long-standing effort to support the children who need it most.
