Hellenic Olympic Committee Fund
Greek sport is entering a period of significant momentum and transformation. In recent years, the Hellenic Olympic Committee has expanded direct support for athletes, strengthened Olympic preparation, renewed critical training infrastructure and built a growing network of institutional and corporate partners.
The Hellenic Olympic Committee Fund builds on this momentum, extending it to the United States and inviting the Greek diaspora and supporters of Greek sport to become part of what comes next.
At the heart of this effort are the athletes themselves. Through the Adopt an Athlete program, HOC provides direct and ongoing financial support to 75 elite Greek athletes preparing for Los Angeles 2028, alongside monthly support for athletes in the broader Olympic preparation pool.
This is part of a wider athlete-support system encompassing coaching and technical expertise, medical care, recovery, equipment, sports science and the continuity of support required to compete at the highest international level.
HOC is restoring critical training and competition venues to the standards required by today’s athletes. Through the Adopt a Sports Facility initiative, historic Olympic facilities are being returned to active use after years of underinvestment. The Schinias Rowing Centre has reopened for national and international competition, while major projects include the restoration of the Olympic Aquatic Center and the renovation of the historic Panathenaic Stadium.
These are not simply investments in buildings. They are investments in the environments Greek athletes need to train, prepare and compete at their best.
HOC is also developing one of its most ambitious long-term projects: a permanent Olympic Athletes’ Residence within the Athens Olympic Stadium Complex. The project responds to a critical housing gap for athletes who come to Athens to train and currently lack dedicated accommodation during their preparation.
Designed to accommodate 60 elite athletes, the Residence will bring together living, dining, recreation and access to training in a stable environment built around the demands of high-performance sport.
The goal is simple: to give Greek athletes a dedicated home where they can live, recover and prepare together — with the continuity and support that Olympic-level performance requires.
The work is already underway. The opportunity now is to accelerate it. Through the Hellenic Olympic Committee Fund, supporters in the United States can help expand athlete support, strengthen the environments in which Greek athletes train and prepare, and contribute to a more sustainable future for Team Hellas.
Los Angeles 2028 gives us a unique moment to bring that community together.
