HYPLife
March 2022
WELCOME BACK!
March is the month that the Greek community joins to celebrate the rich legacies of our culture and unflappable faith as we honor the anniversary of our Independence Day on the 25th. It’s an opportunity to remember and educate others about heroism, perseverance, pride and the many wonderful qualities for which Greek communities and individuals are historically recognized.
We invite you to relax and enjoy this month’s issue of #HYPLife. As always, our goal is to educate, inspire and empower our readers and viewers! As always, upcoming events are listed along with advisory tips and resources.
FREE Tickets to Philo4Thought’s Annual Symposium are available until March 25th. Additional tickets are available through May 10th. All are welcome to register. Additional 50% reductions are available to students and Philo4Thought Passport Members who are interested in attending.
