A One-Man Mission for 100 Lives
Meet Christos: The Heart and Soul of I Stegi
Behind the scenes of I Stegi stands Christos, a compassionate individual with an unwavering commitment to the welfare of animals in Kalampaka, Greece. As the sole driving force of our shelter, he selflessly cares for approximately 100 dogs, embodying the spirit of dedication and love.
The Lone Guardian
While we aspire to present ourselves as a fully functional organization, the reality is that Christos shoulders the immense responsibility of running the shelter single-handedly. His devotion knows no bounds as he tends to the needs of these 100 lives, providing them with care, shelter, and the promise of a brighter future.
The Call for Help
Running a shelter of this scale is an extraordinary feat, and Christos can’t do it alone. The demand for care, medical attention, and daily operations is more significant than ever. We invite you to join us in supporting Christos and the animals he tirelessly cares for. Your involvement can make a substantial difference in ensuring the well-being of these innocent souls.
How You Can Help
Whether through volunteering, fostering, donations, or spreading awareness, your contribution matters. Together, let’s transform the narrative for these 100 dogs and make their journeys filled with compassion, care, and the promise of a brighter tomorrow.
Join us in supporting Christos on this incredible mission. Together, we can turn compassion into action.
Nontas – A Beacon of Hope
In the heart of our journey lies the story of Nontas, a resilient soul who ignited the creation of our shelter. On that fateful day of June 28th, 2013, Christos discovered Nontas in dire straits—starving, and battling the effects of leishmaniasis in a remote location.
Driven by compassion and a profound sense of responsibility, he made a life-changing decision. Nontas became the inspiration behind the inception of his shelter, motivating him to extend a helping hand to more animals in desperate need.
Nontas’s story is one of triumph and tragedy. Nursed back to health, he overcame the odds stacked against him. Regrettably, age caught up with our dear friend and he left us. His memory lives on as a testament to our commitment, a commitment that persists despite the myriad challenges we face.
Nontas may no longer be with us, but his spirit continues to fuel our determination. Each day, we strive to honor his memory by providing hope, care, and a chance for a better life to animals like him.
Join us in celebrating Nontas’s legacy and supporting our ongoing journey. Together, we can turn tales of hardship into stories of resilience and triumph.
Adopt, Don’t Shop: Give a Home, Gain a Friend
At I Stegi, we advocate for the adoption of animals as a compassionate and life-changing choice. By choosing adoption, you not only transform the life of a deserving animal but also enrich your own life with the companionship of a loyal friend.
Remember, each adoption is a small but significant step towards a world where every animal has a loving home. Thank you for considering adoption!
