    (food, clothing, home appliances etc)
  • Student aid
    (scholarships, tutor expenses, student fees)
  • Small subsidies
    (super market coupons, small financial allowances)
  • Coverage of basic living expenses
    (rent, utility bills, etc)

By 2017 over 2,500 families were supported and over 1,500 deliveries of basic goods, mainly food, electrical appliances, medical items (trolleys, hospital beds), furniture and clothes were effectuated. Since 2011, in partnership with the Food Bank—Institution Against Hunger, food is delivered weekly to the Holy Cathedral of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary of Marousi soup kitchen catering more than 170 people.

What we do

Musikoparea

Music Therapy is an established clinical intervention addressing the cognitive, emotional, physical, mental and social needs of older people. Music is the only stimulation that affects all parts of the brain and musical awareness is one of the last functions to be compromised in an individual with dementia. This makes it an especially effective intervention, even in people with late stage forms of the disease.

The program offers weekly music therapy sessions to non-profit nursing homes where the staggering majority suffers from depression and dementia. The visits are weekly and last a year.

Musikoparea is based on the principle of creating a trusting relationship between therapists and participants which evolves, with the help of music, into a convivial and fun exchange of emotions; a “parea” in Greek. Experienced music therapists unlock emotion, trigger memories, desires, skills and activate expression, speech and body movement, addressing the effects of dementia in an effortless and natural way. Since its launch in July 2016, the program has run in fourteen elderly care units (including two Alzheimer facilities). In October 2017, the TIMA Charitable Foundation funded the extension of the program to seven new nursing homes for a year, totaling twenty one elderly care units.

One of the concurrent benefits of Musicoparea is that it provides free education, paid employment and ongoing academic support to young, unemployed or under-employed music therapists.

What we do

Social Warehouse

A 2000sqm. Social Warehouse was created, exclusively funded and managed by ZP during 2011-2014 in a property belonging to the Mimikopoulou Foundation in Maroussi.

It has enabled more than 1,500 families per year to obtain free electrical appliances, furniture, medical equipment, baby accessories, household articles, clothes, books, toys and medicines. Extra care was given to the optimization of donations and the effective and coordinate delivery of goods. The Warehouse management was handed over to the Foundation in 2014.
