Message from the Founder

Welcome to our website! After tireless work by our digital partners at Customedialabs in Philadelphia, we are finally able to present our complete body of work on a single website, bringing together a decade of projects that have impacted tens of thousands of people.

I founded the Greek America Foundation because I felt it was time to get beyond the baklava. It was time to stop breaking plates, and to start breaking stereotypes. I hit a defining moment in my career after meeting so many successful people throughout the nation who were not involved in the established Greek American community.

The end result-- an outstanding movement supported by thousands, with a core mission: to impact people's lives. We are inspired by Pericles' quote that what we leave behind isn't etched on the side of a building, but what is woven into the lives of others.

Every single event we host and project we undertake has this core component.If it isn't going to be impactful on people-- we won't do it. We don't need to have another dinner dance, just for the sake of having another dinner dance.

I invite you to become a member of the Greek America Foundation today and join the movement.

Gregory Pappas,
Founder and Chairman
