Delphi Bank, recognising the work of the Australian Greek Welfare Society (AGWS), presented the organisation with a donation of $18,000. Delphi Bank Chief Executive Officer, George Tacticos, stated that “we aim to give back to the community that supports us and we constantly think about what we can do beyond banking to help our customers and strengthen the communities they live in. We are extremely pleased that our continued fundraising efforts have translated into such a substantial amount for a truly admirable organisation.”
George Spiliotis, President of AGWS, responding on behalf of his organisation said that AGWS truly values its relationship with Delphi Bank, mentioning that the Bank has demonstrated an ongoing commitment to engage and support the work of the Brunswick-based welfare organisation.
The funds come at a time where the Hellenic-Australian community is ageing rapidly and the need for services is at a critical level. AGWS has addressed the existing and emerging needs of the community for over four decades, and their services and programs continue to be recognised for their progressive impact across all areas of the community.
In 2010, the Delphi Bank Foundation selected AGWS to be the benefactor of their fundraising efforts and donated a substantial amount to the organisation, totalling AUD$103,000.
