As part of the \u201cYparxei\u201d campaign and in collaboration with the Pancyprian Coordinating Council for Voluntarism, Zorbas Bakeries will be offering traditional New Year\u2019s cakes (vasilopites).<\/em><\/p>\n

The holidays are a season of love, solidarity, and giving – values deeply woven into local tradition. They arrive with the aroma of freshly baked sweets, with light and warmth spreading from home to home. These are the hallmarks Zorbas Bakeries has stood for, consistently, for more than fifty years.<\/p>\n

This year, through its established Christmas campaign \u201cYparxei\u201d, Zorbas Bakeries, in partnership with the Pancyprian Coordinating Council for Voluntarism (PCCV), will offer traditional New Year\u2019s cakes to senior care homes across all cities where PCCV member organizations operate. The initiative aims to bring moments of joy, smiles, and a renewed sense of hope to elderly residents throughout Cyprus.<\/p>\n

The Group\u2019s 2024 campaign, titled \u201cThere Is Care That Brings Us Closer,\u201d<\/strong> serves as a timely reminder of the power of human connection. It underscores the value of care – and how even the smallest, heartfelt act of giving to someone nearby can make a meaningful difference.<\/p>\n

In a statement, Zorbas Group Marketing Manager Ms. Sophia Tsene said:
\n\u201cOur goal this year is to send a strong and clear message: caring for one another is invaluable, and it can be expressed through small, everyday actions. Through this campaign, we hope to raise public awareness and inspire compassion. Our action in collaboration with the PCCV – whom we thank for our long-standing partnership – is part of our Group\u2019s broader philosophy of social responsibility and meaningful support for our fellow citizens.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mr. Elias Dimitriou, President of the PCCV Governing Committee, added:
\n\u201cWe would like to extend our sincere thanks to the Zorbas Group for its continued support of the PCCV over the years. The message of this year\u2019s campaign deserves to be heard loud and clear, because what our elderly need most is love, support, and care. This initiative is a significant and genuine act of giving\u2014one that will bring moments of happiness to people who truly deserve it.\u201d<\/p>\n
