All TOGETHER for a 'fluffy' hug!

On Friday (24/01) - in the background of the game vs Fenerbahce (20:15 CET)- we come together to send a loud message of love!

World Hug Day was on January 21 and hence Olympiacos BC organizes, together with the Greek Red Cross, a collaborative and symbolic action in support and solidarity to the kids hosted by children's institutions and organizations.    

Specifically, whoever wants to, is asked to bring a stuffed toy and throw it on the Peace and Friendship's court right after the two team's presentation.

The toys will be then dispersed to the associated Red Cross branches in Athens and Thessaloniki, centers that host unaccompanied minors in Athens and Kalavryta, the Pediatric Oncology center "Marianna V. Vardinogiannis - HOPE" and other children's institutions that collaborate wtih the 82 regional Greek Red Cross branches.

For the event to be a success, we ask from the fans attending the game:

  • To arrive at the arena in time.
  • Stuffed toys should be in good condition.
  • To try and aim the playing ground, with the help of all the fans, so that the toys land on target!
  • Assist the efforts of the Olympiacos BC volunteers as well as those of the 25 volunteering First Responders - Samaritans.
