With the blessing and guidance of His Eminence Metropolitan MAXIMOS of the Greek Orthodox Metropolis of Pittsburgh, St. Mary of Egypt was established in 1992 in the heart of Cleveland, Ohio. The Mission was registered as a non-profit corporation in the State of Ohio in 1993 with the stated purpose to provide charitable and humane assistance to the needy.
Since its founding, St. Mary of Egypt has undergone several name changes, while operating under the vision first established in 1993: “To provide charitable and humane assistance to the needy.” Our organization was initially conceived as a charity directing aid to women and children; however, from the beginning, help was also extended to men, elderly and families.
