Corfu Non-Profit Organisations
Corfu has a number of non-profit organisations, some of them cultural
and others relating to animal welfare. A few of them are listed here.

The Ark
A registered charity formed in 1997 to alleviate the suffering of stray and abandoned animals on the island of Corfu.
Corfu Owners
COA was set up primarily for individuals who have a home in Corfu. It aims to represent its members and to act in their collective interest to protect the ecology and environment of Corfu; to maintain close relations with the Authorities and local representatives; to keep members informed regarding any issues that might affect them; to lobby for change where appropriate; to assist and, if appropriate, support financially, any relevant local initiatives, particularly regarding waste management and recycling.
Mediterranean Garden Society
The MGS is an international forum devoted to furthering knowledge and appreciation of plants and gardens suited to the mediterranean climate regions of the world.
Panayiopoula Church, Corfu Town
This small Orthodox church is devoted to the Virgin Mother, the Odigitria. The Odigtria icon is the essence of the church and probably dates from the time the church was built, which is believed to be before 1650.
