Athens College stands by the people of Turkey and Syrian, who were struck by deadly earthquakes these past days. The Elementary, Junior High and High School Student Councils, together with “John M. Carras” Kindergarten, and all School staff participate in this effort and contribute for the relief of those in need.

The collected items will be delivered to the two Municipalities of Filothei-Psychico and Pallini, where our campuses are located.
