Stelios’s story
Stelios, a young man without a home, found himself a job as a courier in Germany. To get there and live until his first salary, he needed about €685: food, plane tickets and a phone card.
Sokratis brought him groceries for the next few days, and asked everyone who watches the videos to help with the rest. The money came in.
Sokratis took him to the airport himself. Stelios made it to Germany, and as far as we know he is working and has a home.
“Do you think we’ll make it?” “I want to hope, yes.”
“I want to hope, yes.”
