Hermes Club was founded for the financing of “EFE-Hellas 1984”, the largest national philatelic exhibition ever held in the country. The endeavour was wholeheartedly supported by many members and friends from Greece and abroad. Their donations contributed significantly to the exhibition revenues and a special bank account was opened in order to finance similar exhibitions in the future.
While hosting the national philatelic exhibitions “Philotelia 2005”, “Lavrion 2009”, and “Hellas-Cyprus 2013”, Hermes Club always paid its fair share. Due to the affection and support of its members, not only the finances of the three exhibitions were fully funded but, more importantly, Hermes Club can claim at this moment a reserve fund in excess of 16,000 euro.
The Hellenic Philotelic Society is currently preparing the long awaited big international NOTOS 2015. We, therefore, invite old and prospective members of the Hermes Club to renew their belief to the high targets the Society serves and support financially the upcoming exhibition. Membership dues are set at 100 euro and of course anything larger will be gratefully appreciated.
Let us all support this noble target.
