KEPAKY has been active in the field of Autism since 2010, creating and equipping a Model Center for Employment, Care, and Therapy in Limassol. The Foundation continues to support individuals and families and has produced a Practical Guide for Individuals with Autism, updated regularly.
KEPAKY’s engagement with the autism community began in 2010 with the full creation and equipment of a Model Center for Employment, Care, and Therapy in Limassol. The center includes specialized equipment for sensory integration, supporting individuals with autism, cerebral palsy, and premature infants. Since October 2010, its operation has been managed by the Cyprus Autism Association, but KEPAKY continues to actively support the center and families.
Recognizing the limited availability of information in Cyprus regarding rights, legislation, and therapies for individuals with autism, KEPAKY created a Practical Guide for Individuals with Autism in 2011, which is regularly updated to reflect new developments.
Program Features
The program helps bridge important gaps in support and information for individuals with autism, offering families valuable resources and improved access to services.
KEPAKY supports refugees and war victims through emergency language-learning programs, distribution of essential goods, and the operation of a kindergarten and an all-day elementary school for Ukrainian refugee children, fully covering all operational costs.
The “Yellow Line of Help and Solidarity” is one of KEPAKY’s signature programs, launched in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic to support individuals and families facing socio-economic hardship. What began as a volunteer initiative under exceptional circumstances has evolved into a lifeline for thousands of households across Cyprus, offering food assistance, essential goods, and free psychological and social support.
The Study Assistance Program provides educational opportunities and scholarships to young people from families facing socio-economic challenges, enabling them to continue their studies. For over 16 years, KEPAKY has offered financial support exceeding €300,000 to students based on academic and social criteria.
KEPAKY promotes social contribution and culture through humanitarian, cultural, and heritage-related activities, including the restoration of the Church of the Holy Apostles, charity events, and international solidarity initiatives.
