Dear Friends of the Detroit Greek Independence Day Parade,
The Annual Detroit Greek Independence Parade is a celebration of Orthodoxy, Hellenism and Freedom. The Ann Arbor, Flint, Detroit, Saginaw, Toledo and Windsor Metropolitan area is one of the strongest Hellenic communities across entire United States and Canada. We are very proud of our heritage and of how we have shaped history in this region. The Detroit Greek Independence Parade offers us an opportunity to further grow our unique culture and keep it influential and alive.
Once again, we would like to recognize individuals that have shown exemplary results in promoting Orthodoxy, Hellenic Civilization and Hellenic Culture. Over the years, our recipients have selflessly contributed their time, energy and resources for the betterment of our Greek American community.
It is important to recognize established members of our Hellenic community that have laid the foundation and continue to be pillars in the Hellenic society. We owe these individuals a debt of gratitude for helping preserve Hellenism for future generations to come. Without their diligent efforts, our rich history and culture would be lost.
