Philoptochos

We are "the friends of the poor" with a mission
"to promote charitable, benevolent, and philanthropic outreach to preserve the sanctity
of life and family and to perpetuate and promote our Orthodox faith and traditions."

This group of volunteers supports outreach programs in the Archdiocese, Metropolis, and local parish. Its volunteers form an active part of life in the local community and have individually and collectively been strong supporters of the church throughout the years.

Please consider joining Philoptochos, either for the first time, or by renewing your membership. Your participation in any capacity is vital to the ongoing mission of our organization.

As in all organizations, per capita or stewardship contributions are an obligation to assist in balancing the parent organization's budget. Each local chapter must set aside per capita contributions per the structure of Philoptochos to the National and Metropolis Chapters.

These are our obligations:

$15.00 per member to the National Office – headquartered in New York
$10.00 per member to the Metropolis Office – located in Pittsburgh
$___________ any amount given beyond $25.00 will go to support our St. Paul North Royalton Chapter
