CORFU. ‘Faros Zois’ (Lighthouse of Life) yet again helping children with serious illnesses.

There was a great response to Faros Zois’ call for people to come to the Regional Building in town on Sunday in an effort to help the young child in serious need of medical help. 6-month-old Elias, the son of Greeks Evelyn and Antonis Argyrokastritis in the USA, was diagnosed with a rare condition affecting his immune system and requires a bone marrow transplant as soon as possible.

Sophia Rozi, President of Faros Zois, said that this was an effort not just to help young Elias, but for all children in need.
