Piraeus Bank serves as a primary supporter of the philanthropic event named "Kyiv Ball," designed for graduates and the children of deceased military personnel. The event took place at the columned hall of the Kyiv City State Administration.

Piraeus Bank, since its establishment in Ukraine, has demonstrated a steadfast commitment to charitable causes, integral to its foundational principles and core values. The bank firmly believes in the power of collective giving and endeavors to allocate not only financial resources but also time, dedication, and energy toward such endeavors. Its philanthropic endeavors span diverse sectors, encompassing healthcare, cultural initiatives, veteran support, and assistance to children. Every initiative supported by the bank is viewed with pride, recognizing its contribution to positive societal transformation and enhanced unity. 

The Kyiv Ball event is organised by the White Bird NGO, public figure and philanthropist Olha Selikh, alongside co-organiser Liliia Oliynyk, director of the Living in Harmony NGO. The event is also supported by the Kyiv City State Administration and Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko. 

In addition to the graduation waltz, the event offered a rich musical program, including performances by well-known bands and artists, aiming to create a unique atmosphere and giving graduates an unforgettable experience.

Yannis Kyriakopoulos, Chairman of the Board of Piraeus Bank in Ukraine, emphasized the bank's dedication to socially responsible endeavors, underlining its commitment to aiding those affected by significant adversities such as the full-scale invasion. He expressed pride in the bank's association with the event and pledged ongoing support for initiatives aimed at enhancing the well-being of Ukrainians. 

"From today, the organisers of this event are launching a new cultural tradition dedicated to the celebration of Kyiv City Day. The youth of our country unite in the rhythm of dance, inviting us to unite in good initiatives and intentions to preserve peace and freedom of our country. This ball will become a vivid symbol of the city of Kyiv, where the colour of the Ukrainian nation gathers, and will serve only for the benefit of the Ukrainian people," summed up Anna Korshunova, president of the White Bird NGO.
