Running for office? Introduce yourself to the Greek-American Community!
Thank you for joining us at the UHVA 2024 Awards Gala!
Established in 1974, the United Hellenic Voters of America (UHVA) is a non-partisan grass roots political organization serving the Greek-American community in the Chicago metropolitan area . The UHVA is dedicated to addressing issues that are vital to Greek-Americans by actively participating in political and community affairs and by establishing close relationships with our elected officials. Focusing primarily on local and state elections the UHVA provides the bridge between the community and local candidates who would otherwise be unknown to the voters. Local elections garner very little publicity marking these candidates as just a name on a ballot. The UHVA meets and interviews these candidates who wish to forge a relationship with the Greek-American community endorsing candidates they feel will benefit them.
JUST FOR THE VOTERS
