The American Hellenic Educational Progressive Association (AHEPA) is by far the largest Greek-American organization. Its scope is international - with chapters in the United States, Canada, Australia and Greece. AHEPA was founded July 26, 1922, in Atlanta, Georgia, by visionary Americans of Greek descent to protect Hellenes from the evils of bigotry and to help assimilate them into American society in the early 20th Century. Although a majority of the membership is composed of Americans of Hellenic descent, application for membership is open to everyone who believes in the mission of the organization.

I had the distinct pleasure of being invited to four family gatherings and had the pleasure of spending time with the Brothers and Sisters of London, Ont., (pics In next issue) Toronto, Montreal and hopefully (weather permitting) I will be able to join the Ottawa family at their Christmas gathering on Dec.21st
