Inside Philanthropy: How the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Supports Mental Health in Greece and Beyond

Besides the Greek government, SNF’s other primary partner in mental health is the New York-based Child Mind Institute (CMI). The collaboration began upon the organization’s inception in 2010, and has continued with a steady stream of grants and initiatives.

Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF), one of the world’s largest global private philanthropies, has made global health a priority since its founding a quarter-century ago, and considers mental health a “core element” of that work. SNF recently announced a five-year, $15 million commitment to get a youth mental health program off the ground in Greece, collaborating with two longtime partners, the Child Mind Institute (CMI) and the Greek Ministry of Health.
