with pride, passion, and promise—for the 40 scholarship recipients, their families and the more than 450 guests
who attended. It was an evening of star quality with Dean Richards, WGN’s Emmy award winning entertainment
reporter serving as Master of Ceremonies, Alexander Payne, whose films have won two Academy Awards for
Best Adapted Screenplay, and Petros Gaitanos who delighted guests with his music.
“Tonight we applaud and celebrate the outstanding academic achievements of our scholars. They are the “stars”
who have the drive and ambition to be the “best and brightest” Greek American college students in the country.
I express to them my deep gratitude for demonstrating the values of Hellenism and congratulate them as award
winning scholars of the PanHellenic Scholarship Foundation,” said Chris Tomaras, Founder and Chairman.
In accepting their awards, each student expressed gratitude and appreciation for the Foundation’s support.
Eleni Christou, an Honors Student at the University of Florida said after the ceremony, “I am honored to be a
PanHellenic Scholarship Foundation Award recipient. This award means more to me than the financial help that
will allow me to continue my studies; it is recognition that the Greek American community—of which I am so
proud to be a part of—is proud of me.”
“Every one of our scholars has pride in their Hellenic heritage and upbringing; a passion for learning and the
promise to succeed,” said Mr. Tomaras. He also congratulated the recipients’ parents for instilling in them the
ethos, integrity and philotimo—that deep sense of honor and responsibility—to achieve their personal best.
Dr. George Alexopoulos, Chairman of the Academic Committee also expressed congratulations. “I say with
great conviction that your success is OUR success, one that is celebrated by the entire Greek community. You
will no doubt reach the top of your education plateau in the very near future and you will be the core of young
dynamic leaders that our society needs.”
Expressing gratitude and appreciation on behalf of the recipients, Cleopatra Haviaras, a junior at CUNY Queens
College in New York, remarked “being a 2012 PanHellenic Scholarship Award recipient is a great honor, one
that we will forever cherish. We thank Mr. Tomaras and the Foundation for recognizing and awarding students
for their achievements. They have bestowed upon us a most gracious award, one that will enable us to move
forward with our heads held high.”
One of the highlights of the Awards Ceremony was the presentation of the 2012 Paradigm Award to acclaimed writer and director, Alexander Payne. Payne joins a distinguished group of Paradigm Award recipients whose life accomplishments and dedication to Hellenism serve as role models for scholarship recipients. Introducing Payne was the Very Reverend Archimandrite Eugene Pappas, his spiritual father during
Payne’s boyhood years. Fr. Eugene recounted Payne’s younger days and how his parents instilled in all their
children a dedication to the Orthodox faith and the Hellenic heritage.

Chairman’s Message Inspires
Pride, Passion and Promise in Hellenism and Education
Ten years ago, the PanHellenic
Scholarship Foundation hosted its first Awards Ceremony
and Gala. This was our way of
expressing our congratulations
to the exceptional college students of our Greek American
community. The event, which
has grown to be one of the
premier social events in Chicago, celebrates and applauds
the academic achievement of
students from across the country. It also says that we as Greek
Americans care about our young
scholars and their future.
With every Gala, my pride in our award recipients has grown, for they
have demonstrated, not only academic success, but a deep devotion to their Hellenic roots. My passion for education has deepened
as well. “Morfosis” (education) is the most important ingredient of
the human existence, which together with Hellenic values, delivers
leaders and significant contributors to society. Our recipients have
drive and ambition. They are passionate about learning and seeking
a higher education.
Fulfilling our promise of two years ago, we have launched Hellenic
Birthright, our new cultural enrichment program that was created in
cooperation with Anatolia College and their school of Higher Studies, the American College of Thessaloniki. On June 18, 2012, fifteen
students who have never been to Greece embarked on the journey
of a lifetime.
In this next decade, the Foundation is exploring how it can increase
the number of scholarships awarded, expand scholarship opportunities to graduate students and create an endowment that will sustain
the Foundation’s mission and ensures the legacy lives on.
As benefactors, donors and supporters, you made the difference
and contributed to our success. Throughout these ten years, you
have responded generously, giving us the resources to fulfill our mission. I express to you my heartfelt gratitude.
I encourage you to support a deserving student with a donation to the
PanHellenic Scholarship Foundation. Your contribution will offer a lifechanging opportunity for a young scholar in need of support. We look
forward to your joining our growing group of donors. Together we will
build a better America through Education and Hellenism.
With Gratitude,
They have the promise to succeed and contribute meaningfully to
the American society. And you have my promise that the Foundation will continue to expand its role, not only in the arena of awarding scholarships, but also in developing leadership, educational programs and mentoring platforms that will enable our Greek American
students to soar to new heights.
10th Annual Awards Gala
(continued from cover)
In his uplifting speech, Chris Tomaras thanked the recipients and
donors who have made the PanHellenic Scholarship Foundation the
premier scholarship foundation in the country. He also expressed
appreciation to the Stavros Niarchos Foundation for their continued
support. Over the past ten years, the Foundation has increased the
number of recipients along with its awards, giving a total of $250,000
annually. They have created new programs, such as the current cultural
enrichment and study abroad program, Hellenic Birthright.
Members’ Dedication and Diligence
Select Outstanding Award Recipients
“Now we must look forward to a new decade and set new goals,”
said Chris Tomaras. “Our plans include supporting our students’ cost
throughout their four-year college education. With tuition and related
expenses on the rise, our scholarships will be responsive and relevant
to the needs of the time,” continued Mr. Tomaras.
Thanks to the dedication and
commitment of Dr. George
Alexopoulos, Dr. Constantine
Georgakis and Mr. Constantine Houpis, members of the
Academic Committee, this
year’s scholarship recipients,
once again, represented the
“best and brightest” in the
United States.
Following the Awards Ceremony, guests enjoyed a sumptuous dinner
at the Hilton Chicago, a terrific Silent Auction that featured more than
100 items, and a musical performance by Petros Gaitanos that had
everyone dancing. Noted dignitaries attending the event included:
His Eminence Metropolitan Iakovos, His Grace Bishop Demetrios
of Mokissos, Honorable Consul General of Greece in Chicago Ioanna Efthymiadou, Presidents and Officers of Greek American organizations, Heads of academic institutions and members of Chicago’s
cultural and social communities.
We also express appreciation
to Dr. Alexopoulos for his
untiring efforts as Chairman.
Dr. Alexopoulos is a wellknown college educator and is a member of the Board of Trustees of Oakton Community College in Des Plaines, Illinois. His vast
knowledge, experience and leadership abilities have tremendously
aided the PanHellenic Scholarship Foundation in the selection of
outstanding recipients worthy of recognition and support.
The PanHellenic Scholarship Foundation expresses its gratitude to all
who supported the event, making it a stellar, memorable evening for
the scholarship recipients and our guests.
We express our gratitude to the Academic Committee for their
invaluable service to the Foundation!

Paradigm Award Recipient
Advises PanHellenic Scholars to “Follow Your Passion”
Hellenic Birthright
The Journey of a Lifetime for
Young Greek American Scholars
Alexander Payne, the famous Greek American filmmaker, was this year’s Paradigm Award
recipient. In accepting the award, Payne addressed his remarks to the scholarship recipients by saying:
“The only modest piece of advice I will offer you tonight—for God’s sake, don’t listen to
your parents when it comes to choosing a profession. They love you so much, but they
often mistake financial security as early as possible with happiness in life. They are not the
same thing, not by a long shot. Earth, during the brief flash of life that God gives you and
that you call your own, offers way too many spectacular possibilities than can be predicted,
or worse, dictated by loving and well-intended Greek parents.”
Born February 10, 1961 in Omaha, Nebraska, to Peggy and George Payne (Papadopoulos),
Constantine Alexandros Papadopoulos was the youngest of three sons. His parents owned
a Greek restaurant, and his father was also a Commander in the US Navy. Payne credits his
parents for instilling in him an understanding of human life and a true appreciation of his Greek
American identity.
Alexander Payne’s portrayal of extraordinary moments has earned him two Academy Awards
for Best Adapted Screenplay; the first in 2004 for Sideways and most recently for The Descendants in 2012. He has been awarded numerous Golden Globes and received honors from the
Writer’s Guild of America and the New York Film Critics for his remarkable abilities as a writer,
producer and director.
The PanHellenic Scholarship Foundation is proud to have presented the 2012 Paradigm
Award to Alexander Payne in recognition of his outstanding life accomplishments, for being an exemplary role model for today’s young scholars and for his dedication to family and
the virtues of Hellenism.
A Message from our Executive Director
“Thank You for Believing in Our Mission”
Yanni Valsamas, Executive Director of the PanHellenic Scholarship
Foundation expressed his appreciation to donors and guests for
their continued support by saying,
“Aristotle Onassis once said “To
succeed, it is necessary to make
others see things as you see them.
Thank you for believing and seeing
things as we see them. Without
your continued support, we would
not be celebrating 10 years of outstanding achievements.”
He thanked Mr. Chris Tomaras, Founder and Chairman, for his foresight in establishing the Foundation, and expressed how Mr. Tomaras’
leadership, dedication and spirit of philanthropy have enabled the
organization to grow and help many young scholars.
“After 10 years, I feel more compelled and determined now more than
ever to ensure that the Foundation continues for many decades to come,”
said Yanni, who has been with the Foundation since it inception.
You can help the PanHellenic Scholarship Foundation meet its goals

WGN Entertainment Reporter
Master of Ceremonies for 10th Annual Gala
The PanHellenic Scholarship Foundation was pleased to have Dean
Richards, Emmy Awarding winning entertainment reporter for
WGN-TV and Radio as this year’s
Master of Ceremonies. Dean’s
engaging personality added to his
role as Emcee of the event.
Dean Richards grew up in the West
Beverly neighborhood of Chicago.
From a young boy he was fascinated with broadcasting and would
play “radio” in the basement of
his home.
A graduate of Columbia College, Dean earned his Broadcast Communications/Marketing degree, and began his career by working his way
through a string of suburban radio stations. Today, Dean is a “star” entertainment reporter at WGN-TV and host of WGN Radio Sunday morning program. In addition to winning an Emmy, Richards has won over
30 local and national awards for programming and production, including the prestigious Peter Lisagor Award for Outstanding Journalism.
The PanHellenic Scholarship Foundation expresses its gratitude to
Dean Richards for being Master of Ceremonies and for contributing
to the evening’s success. Thank you Dean for a job well done!
Hellenic Birthright is the Foundation’s newest educational program and a
unique opportunity for Greek American college students who have never
been to Greece to learn about and appreciate their heritage. This cultural
enrichment program connects American students of Hellenic descent with
their ancestral birth place by offering specially tailored educational courses
with cultural activities that blend academics, art, architecture and history.
This program was launched in collaboration with Anatolia College and their
school of Higher Studies, the American College of Thessaloniki (ACT).
The inaugural Hellenic Birthright participants, ages 18-25, toured Greece
for a five-week study abroad experience that lasted through July 20th. In
addition to their course work for which they will receive up to six transferable credits, students participated in daily as well as overnight excursions to
historic sites such as Vergina, Pella, Corinth, Delphi and Troy. They also toured Athens and Thessaloniki, visiting museums and ancient ruins in each city.
Hellenic Birthright confirms the Foundation’s goal of developing educational and leadership programs designed to enhance knowledge and
strengthen the participants’ bond to their Hellenic heritage and culture.
The PanHellenic Scholarship Foundation is grateful to the Stavros Niarchos Foundation and all of the donors who helped make this new program
a success. Our participants are delighted with their new experience as we see it in some of their messages below:
“[As our plane landed in Thessaloniki] I was hit with an encapsulating gratefulness—to God, my family, and to the donors who made it possible
for me to be in the land of my ancestors.”– Anna Colby
“Greece has been nothing short of breathtaking. We all chose to come here for different reasons, but with the same intentions; we wanted to
know Greece, we wanted to know what it really means to be Greek, not Greek Americans, but actually Greek.” – Alexa Moulakis
“I thought back on the numerous places we’ve visited on the trip—from Corinth in the south, to Alexandroupoli and the Greek borders in the
north, to Troy in the east, and Corfu in the west—the vastness and beauty of the archaeological sites and the scenery of the land can’t be described in words but merely by the feeling you receive as you indulge in life’s treasures and wonderful experiences. As I move into my final weekend in Greece, I’d like to express my deepest appreciation to Mr. Tomaras and the PanHellenic Scholarship Foundation for the opportunity and
experience of a lifetime.” – Dimitrios Roumeliotis
“I would like to begin by expressing how grateful I am for this opportunity extended to me by Mr. Tomaras and the PanHellenic Scholarship Foundation. My experiences from the different trips to Troy, Athens, Delphi and Dion have not only given me memories of a lifetime, but also a new
outlook on my Hellenic roots. Furthermore, this program has given me the chance to see family throughout Greece for the first time, a chance I
may have otherwise not had.” – Jonathan Mitchell
