We are an American Greek non-profit organization. We were established on 2 December 2018 in the USA and have been operating since then in Moria Camp Lesvos. We registered with the Ministry of Migration and Asylum in February 2019 and have access and have been operative in Moria camp since then. In January 2020 we registered as a Greek non-profit. Fenix would like to apply to a larger scale of the grant to cover part of our long term operation costs. Therefore, we are writing to request if it is possible to consider us eligible for the medium or large scale grants as being operative since 2018.
