This project will offer 10,000 additional nutritious, cooked meals to displaced and homeless people in Athens, Greece. So far in 2025, we have provided an average of 180 meals per day. As we are witnessing the need to increase the portions, we are increasing the served number of meals. Our goal is to reach the 360 portions on daily basis. Help us support more people in need to access healthy meals contributing to their physical, mental and emotional health.
Food insecurity is a widespread issue in Athens. According to Eurostat, 1 in 10 people in Greece faced food insecurity in 2023, while 1 in 3 people living below the poverty line could not feed themselves properly. Displaced people are often at higher risk of food insecurity and malnutrition. Changes to the asylum process and state support programme hinder and exclude people from accessing social support services, including food security, leaving people at risk of homelessness and destitution.
Project Armonia provides nutritious and healthy food to displaced communities, homeless people and other socially-marginalised groups in Athens. As needs increase, we want to increase the daily portions we cook in order to be able to support more people facing food insecurity - increasing to 360 portions per day. With this project we will ensure 6 months of healthy and delicious lunch cooked by a professional chef, cooks and volunteers in our fully-licensed professional kitchen.
During the first half of 2025, we provided 20,955 meals to displaced and homeless people living in Athens - an average of 180 per day. With your support in this project you will offer us the opportunity to double our impact, and increase the amount of healthy and nutritious meals provided to 360 per day. Access to nutritious food, as a basic human need, is the first step to allow people to rebuild their lives and foster inclusion and self-reliance.
