Clothing Drive Spreads Joy

On Sunday, November 20, children in the Joy Program of the Greek Orthodox Shrine Church of St. Nicholas in Flushing, with the help of adult volunteers headed by Nicholas Zillas, took the clothes accumulated through the clothing drive they held this autumn to the St. Albans Domiciliary Care Program for homeless veterans. Zillas expressed thanks to all volunteers who brought the clothing items to the church, put dresses and suits on hangers and packed smaller articles in boxes. Shown are parent volunteers Nick and Bessie Zillas, Maria Gatanas, Eleni Stathopoulos and Chris Pantazis and JOY volunteers Yianna Gatanas and Georgana. The group was accompanied by spiritual advisor Father George Ioannou.
