At the Hellenic Ladies Benevolent Society (HLBS), our events are more than gatherings—they are traditions of giving, celebrating, and creating impact. Each season, our community comes together to raise funds, support those in need, and foster meaningful connections.
From elegant galas to heartfelt campaigns, your participation sustains our mission: providing emergency relief, educational support, social services, and compassionate aid.
Every November, HLBS partners with CFMB Radio to host Marathon Agapi—our long-standing Radiothon of Love. For over a century, this tradition has helped provide urgent assistance for families in crisis. Funds raised cover essentials such as food, clothing, rent, medical bills, educational bursaries, and other essential needs.
Your generosity makes this lifeline possible. Together, we provide hope where it’s needed most.
