The Alexandra Angelis Scholarship
We want to express our gratitude for the opportunity given our association, through Mr. & Mrs. Nick and Victoria Angelis generosity to honor the memory of their daughter Alexandra, by awarding $1000 annual Scholarship to a deserving high school graduate in Evrytania. The scholarship will be named "The Alexandra Angelis Scholarship", and it will be awarded at the same time we present our annual "Velouchi" scholarships in Karpenissi. It is the generosity of people like Angelis family, who express their love in such a beautiful manner that enriches our organization.
The Sotirios Karanikas Scholarship
Heartfelt congratulations to Mr. Sotirios Karanikas for his outstanding academic and professional achievements. We are thankful for his generous Named Scholarship donation of $2000, an awesome example for other past Velouchi scholarship recipients to follow.
Sotirios Karanikas, the son of Demetrios and Anastasia Karanikas, is of Evrytanian descent from the village of Chryso. From 2004-2008 Sotirios attended the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and was many times awarded a scholarship from the Evrytanian Association to help him in his academic endeavors. After having completed his education at MIT with a B.S. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science and a B.S. in Management Science in 2008, he joined Bank of America Merrill Lynch as a derivatives trader. For years he promised to himself that he would one day come back and help pass down the support that was given to him to another generation looking to study in the USA. March 2018 was that time he decided to make a $2,000 donation to the Velouchi‟s Scholarship Fund to help GreekAmerican students of Evrytanian descent pursue their higher education in the United States. Sotirios is a great Role Model for all of us at the Evrytanian Association. There are not enough words or ways to express how grateful we are to Sotirios. His life is a wonderful example of partnership and collaboration seeking common goals, an example for others to follow.
