A Magical Christmas Event by MEGA for the Association of Friends of Children with Cancer “ELPIDA”
On Monday, December 16, 2024, MEGA S.A. joined forces with the culinary team of chef Akis Petretzikis for a unique Christmas event dedicated to the “ELPIDA – Association of Friends of Children with Cancer”.
The event took place at the amphitheater of the “Marianna V. Vardinoyannis – ELPIDA” Children’s Oncology Unit, where young patients experienced the magic of Christmas in a warm, love-filled atmosphere.
At the heart of the event was the “treat neighborhood”, where children, under the guidance of Akis Petretzikis’ chefs, decorated their own festive cookies. Fondant, colorful sprinkles, and delicious candies became the tools for sweet creations that filled their day with joy and color.
Meanwhile, Santa’s elves added extra sparkle to the celebration by entertaining the children with painting activities, impressive balloon creations, and beautiful hand paintings that brought smiles to the faces of both young and old.
In addition, MEGA donated toys for the hospital’s common areas, offering to all the children that are hospitalized there, moments of joy.
With a strong sense of social responsibility and commitment, MEGA announced the beginning of an annual collaboration with the “ELPIDA” Association. As part of this partnership, the company will provide personal hygiene products to support the families and children hosted at the “Marianna V. Vardinoyannis – ELPIDA” Pediatric Oncology Unit and the “ELPIDA – Marianna V. Vardinoyannis” Guest House.
