"Samos Club of Cleveland, Inc." is a registered non-profit organization with the State of Ohio (Entity #5461535).
We expect to complete federal 501(c)(3) non-profit status in early 2026.
At Samos Club of Cleveland, we are dedicated to uniting the vibrant Samian community of Greater Cleveland through culture, connection, and compassion. Our mission is to celebrate our rich heritage, strengthen bonds among generations of Samians abroad, and give back with purpose.
We proudly support charitable initiatives and community development projects through fundraising, cultural events, social events and community service. We aim to preserve our traditions in a way that honors and respects the history and ancestry of the island of Samos.
We believe in the power of community–rooted in pride, inspired by our homeland, and driven by a shared commitment to making a positive impact for present and future generations.
