BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The Helen Chiotes Scholarship Fund is generously funded by Ms. Helen Chiotes, an extensive philanthropist, and staunch advocate and supporter of major US/Hellenic and Orthodox causes; and recipient of the Chian Federation’s 38th Homeric Award.
The Chian Federation is grateful to Ms. Chiotes for this generous donation and pledges to honor the Chiotes name and family by selecting stellar individuals to benefit from this scholarship, who will also become great members of our community and emulate Ms. Chiotes example of charity and caring.
The Helen Chiotes Scholarship Fund provides financial assistance to students of Chian descent who are,
  • Living in the United States and have been accepted to study in the United States for their baccalaureate or master’s degree, in an accredited academic institution.
  • Living in Greece and have been accepted to a Greek higher education institution*.
  • Living in Greece and have been accepted to study in an institution in the United States
Eligible candidates must demonstrate both financial need and academic merit, and be in good standing in their current academic institutions and in their communities.
Applications for funds should be on a semester basis.
* All scholarships must be compliant with IRS tax laws for scholarships. Our first and foremost goal is to preserve the tax deductibility of our donors’ whole donation. Therefore, we reserve the right to add requirements at any time to protect the scholarship as necessary. This will particularly effect all foreign students applying to colleges abroad who will need to qualify not only themselves, but help us qualify the institution they will be attending as well. Therefore, it will be necessary to contact the office and inquire what additional information will be necessary prior to applying.
