<h1>HISTORY & MISSION</h1> </header> <div class="description"> <p>The Stavros Niarchos Foundation [(SNF) (www.SNF.org)] is one of the world’s leading private, international philanthropic organizations, making grants in the areas of arts and culture, education, health and sports, and social welfare. Since 1996, SNF has committed <a href="/web/20170726212038/http://www.snf.org/en/grants/grant-allocation/" title="Grant Allocation">$2.1 billion</a>, through 3,891 grants to nonprofit organizations in <a href="/web/20170726212038/http://www.snf.org/en/grants/world-map-of-grants/" title="WORLD MAP OF GRANTS">113 nations around the world</a>. The Foundation funds organizations and projects that are expected to achieve a broad, lasting and positive impact for society at large, and exhibit strong leadership and sound management. The Foundation also supports projects that facilitate the formation of public-private partnerships as an effective means for serving public welfare.</p> <p>In addition to its standard grants, the SNF has continued to respond to the urgent needs of Greek society, by providing relief against the severe effects of the socioeconomic crisis through three major grant initiatives of $378 million.</p> <p>The Foundation’s largest single gift is the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center (<a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20170726212038/http://www.snfcc.org/default.aspx" target="_blank">SNFCC</a>), in Athens. The project’s total cost is $861 million. The SNFCC is designed by the renowned architectural firm Renzo Piano Building Workshop, and includes the new facilities of the National Library of Greece, and Greek National Opera, as well as the Stavros Niarchos Park. The Center was delivered to the Greek Society on February 23rd, 2017. Following the handover, the SNF announced its commitment to continue supporting the SNFCC for the next five years, through grants totaling up to $53 million. The grants support the implementation of public programming and help cover part of SNFCC’s operational costs. All events funded with SNF support are free to the public.</p> <p>The SNF does not engage in any “for profit” activities in Greece or abroad, and it is audited by Deloitte.</p> <p> </p> <p><em>The Stavros Niarchos Foundation is a grant-making organization only. The SNF does not solicit or accept donations from individuals, corporations or other organizations. Even though the SNF does not make grants to individuals or provide individual scholarships, individuals benefit through the numerous programs and actions of the nonprofit organizations that it supports. To find out about supporting any of the organizations the SNF supports, or to apply for assistance from programs funded by the SNF at specific organizations, please contact those organizations directly.</em></p> <p><em> </em></p> </div> </div> <aside class="additional-data">  </aside> <div class="content"> <div class="share-actions"><div class="fb-like"
