WLG Impact: Working together for what matters!

Yanos Gramatidis, partner of Bahas, Gramatidis & Partners Law Firm, Greece, in his capacity as the Honorary President of the Hellenic American Chamber of Commerce, following the initiative of Nektarios Farmakis, the Regional Governor of Western Greece, mobilized economic and social players in the U.S.A., to help restore approximately80,000 – 100,000 out of  425,000 olive trees affected by the recent devastating fires in the greater area of Ancient Olympia.

As part of this mobilization, the non-profit organization Arete Fund, created by Steve and Dianne de Laet, is organizing an online campaign for the purchase of 85,000 to 100,000 new olive orchards and their planting in areas at the Ancient Olympia.

This project is also supported by Georgios Georgiopoulos, the Mayor of Ancient Olympia, while the Law Firm Bahas, Gramatidis & Partners, the auditing company RSM Hellas and the non-profit organization International Relations for Culture are offering their services pro bono.
