Washington, DC — In the month of June, American Hellenic Institute (AHI) members hosted two fundraising receptions in support of AHI. On June 18, 2005, AHI members Nicholas and Irene Kyriakopoulos graciously opened their home in Potomac, Maryland for a reception in support of the American Hellenic Institute. On June 25, 2005, AHI Chicago-area members and friends attended a similar reception. The event was hosted at the home of AHI Advisory Committee Member and long time supporter Ted Spyropoulos and his wife Erika. "I especially want to thank Nicholas and Irene Kyriakopoulos as well as Ted and Erika Spyropoulos for kindly hosting these events and for their longtime commitment and support to the American Hellenic Institute," said AHI Executive Director Nick Larigakis.
