I recommend Philotimo Med.
by: Maritalia Toscano - United StatesProgram: Medical & Educational Volunteer with Refugees in GreeceI absolutely recommend Philotimo Med. Stavros’s energy and advice made each day brighter, and the accommodations were safe and secure. The children at the shelter really benefited from our support. Plus, the group meals were always a great time!

by: Joseph Albazour - LebanonProgram: Medical & Educational Volunteer with Refugees in GreeceVolunteering at Philotimo Med in Larissa has been unforgettable. The accommodations were safe and close to the shelter. Stavros was always ready with a smile and good advice. The group dinners were wonderful, and I felt like I was really making a difference
Gap-year in Greece
by: Hellen Choutsa - CanadaProgram: Medical & Educational Volunteer with Refugees in GreeceThis program is fantastic for anyone taking a gap year! Larissa is beautiful, the accommodations are safe, and the shelter is just a short walk away. Stavros is a legend—so helpful and funny! Working with the kids was the most meaningful part of my time in Greece.
Thank you so much.
