Romania chapter announcement

The Executive Committee of the Friends of Mount Athos is delighted to announce
the launch of a Romanian Chapter under the leadership of Dan Stoica.
The newly formed Chapter will engage with the small number of current FoMA
members in Romania and of course seek to attract new members.
The FoMA Romania Chapter will shortly be announcing a new locally based
organising committee who will undertake the task of developing a programme of
tailored social events and other fundraising activities.

Notes:
The Friends of Mount Athos (FoMA), formed in 1990, is an international organisation
open to all who share a concern for the Orthodox monasteries of Mount Athos.
Members include men and women — of all faiths and none — who are interested
in the past, present, and future of Athonite monasteries and their dependent houses.
FoMA operates as a charitable and educational society but also as a society of friends.
It is dedicated to supporting the well-being of the monasteries of Mount Athos and
aiding those undertaking pilgrimages to the Holy Mountain.
