Meet Harris Gazi, co-founder of Πρώτα το Π

Meet Harris Gazi, co-founder of Πρώτα το Παιδί – Children First, an organization that does exactly what it says, puts children first. The organization was founded in December of 2019 after Harris and her two friends noticed how many more families were living below the poverty line in their community due to Greece’s financial crisis. Nutrition, education, and medical care are the organization’s central focus. With Harris’s 20-year experience in communications and fundraising, such an organization was a no-brainer. In only two years, Πρώτα το Παιδί – Children First, has already helped so many children and their families when it comes to their health and skill development. Here is what Harris had to say to Aphrodite Kotrotsios, publisher of the Hellenic News of America about why she started the organization and why it is important to her.
