Fronditha Care proudly honoured three new Benefactors at its recent Volunteer Recognition Ceremony, celebrating their enduring contribution and commitment to the organisation.
Mary Calombaris was acknowledged for her longstanding dedication and support. She, along with guests, were visibly touched by a special video message from her son, renowned chef George Calombaris, who reflected on his mother’s connection to Fronditha Care and the importance of giving back through philanthropy. Accepting the recognition she noted: “All I have done, and continue to do, comes from deep love for Fronditha Care and our elders - it gives me so much joy. I will continue to contribute as much as I can for as long as I am able to."
Founding member Dr Conn Constantinou, with his wife Pat Constantinou, were also appointed as Benefactors in recognition of their significant financial contribution since Fronditha Care’s establishment and for their continued support. Addressing attendees, Dr and Mrs Constantinou reflected on the organisation’s early years and the vision that helped shape Fronditha Care nearly five decades ago.
“Fronditha Care allowed elders to be themselves, to be respected and celebrated in their later years,” Dr Constantinou said. We are delighted to be part of this organisation which has continued to thrive and build on that vision."
Mr Kostas Livadaras President and Board Chair, said "The recognition of these Benefactors reflects Fronditha Care’s ongoing commitment to bestowing benefactor status to those whose leadership, generosity and financial support have played a defining role in the organisation’s history and its future. We are proud to work alongside them for the benefit of our elders."
