On Saturday, Jan 15th, the Hellenic Society of Constantinople will hold its annual Dinner Dance at the Wilshire Country Club. This will be the 45th consecutive year that the organization “cut” its vassilopita. The Hellenic Society of Constantinople was founded by a group of Greek Americans who came to the US from Istanbul for a better future. Every year the organization honors a person of Greek descent who has promoted Greek heritage. This year the organization will honor the philanthropist and LTC Properties Chairman Andre Dimitriadis with the annual Yianni Begakis Award. The goal of the Gala is to raise funds for charity organizations of the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople.
The cost of the ticket is one hundred and twenty five dollars, and checks may be made payable to The Hellenic Society of Constantinople.
