“The Greek American Institute was my nest of ten years...A place of comfort where the faculty and staff believed in me, supported me, and gave me my wings to soar through high school and college. Without the rigorous curriculum that not only fostered academic growth, but also instilled in its students a moral compass, I wouldn’t be the woman I am today, determined to leave her community better than she found it. G.A.I. breeds hardworking and talented students who, after flying high, give back to the nest from which they were given their wings.”
