Mr. Evangelos Marinakis stands by the children in need

The President of Olympiacos, through his donation to AHEPA University General Hospital, shows once again his sensitivity towards young children.

Mr. Evangelos Marinakis has proven through his actions that he is next to our fellowmen in need of help at all times. He is particularly sensible when it comes to young children and this can be understood by, among other things, his huge contribution over the years to the Association of Friends of Children with Cancer “Elpida” (Hope).

The President of Olympiacos FC proceeded to another great action, as he donated the equipment to the Clinic of Adult Congenital Heart Defects of AHEPA Hospital’s First Cardiology Department. The clinic provides care for around 600 patients and, with his donation, made in memory of his father, Miltiadis Marinakis, reaching the amount of 75,000 euros, Mr. Marinakis contributes to make the diagnosis and monitoring possible in Thessaloniki. This way, parents and children won’t be forced to travel to Athens for examinations, as was stated by the president of the Northern Greece Association for Children with Congenital Heart Defects “Children’s Hearts”, Chrysoula Tsikritsidou.

Thanks to this offer, the clinic was equipped with a state-of-the-art electrocardiograph, an electronic blood pressure monitor with roll stand, a 12-channel cardiograph and two modern holders. The needs of hospitals and people suffering with congenital heart defects are large. Our Association tries to improve the healthcare conditions for these patients, contributing to make the diagnosis and monitoring of the disease possible in Thessaloniki. This way, parents and children don’t have to go to Athens for exams and experience great physical discomfort and financial expenses,” she stressed.

This is a hugely important donation. Its purpose is to facilitate the access to healthcare to hundreds of children. Mr. Marinakis, with his actions, continues to stand by and to help those in need, especially young children, setting a good example to others so that they follow the important work he offers to society.
