The
Hellenic-American Cultural Association of Colorado exists to contribute
in the dissemination and preservation of Hellenic heritage and culture,
past and present, to interested persons, especially the youth, and
to instill an understanding of the contributions of the past, its
influence on the present, and its contemporary manifestations.
Objectives
- The purpose is to provide members and other interested individuals
with knowledge, based on historic fact, about the culture and history
of the Greek world. In addition, the Association shall promote an
understanding of the influence and contributions of Hellenism on
Western Civilization and religion through cultural and educational
activities and programs. Special efforts shall be made to organize
programs and activities that will be beneficial to the youth. These
objectives should be accomplished without development of arrogance,
fanaticism, or boisterous ethnicity, but through the scientific
process and method, and in a straight-forward presentation of historical
facts.
The
function of the Association is:
- Cultural.
To organize and sponsor cultural, artistic, and intellectual activities
for the benefit of the American-Hellenic community and the general
public.
- Educational.

workshops, seminars and newsletters on topics that are of interest
to its members and that promote the objectives of the Association.
Special attention should be given to the education of the youth,
according to the objectives of the Association, and through sponsorship
of scholarships, travel grants and educational contests.
- Service.
To provide speakers, literature, visual aids or any pertinent
information regarding Hellenic culture and language to both Hellenic
and American groups, schools or communities, and to any persons
interested in the Association.
