Today, Monday, January 30, will take place the 3rd draw of the “Tourism for All” Program relevant to 125,000 new beneficiariesthus reaching them 400,000 in total only for this year. In fact, digital cards can be redeemed until the end of June.
As he has recently emphasized to the Athens Agency the Deputy Minister of Tourism Sofia Zaharakis, the “Tourism for All” program, launched the 2020 – 2021 season as a measure to support tourism in the pandemic, and through it €19 million was redeemed by 200,000 beneficiaries. In fact, the “Tourism for All” program of the Ministry of Tourism has a dual purpose: firstly, the support – in times of global crises – of our fellow citizens, and secondly, the expansion of tourist traffic throughout the country and throughout the year, Mrs. Zaharaki had mentioned.
This year, as highlighted, the program has been significantly upgraded. Now it is granted with a digital card on our mobile phone, while the subsidy amounts to 150 euros per beneficiary, and 200 euros for our fellow citizens with disabilities. It covers accommodation in every destination in the country, and for the entire winter months, thus contributing to the long-awaited extension of the season, while we ensured that the businesses were credited with the money immediately, notes the Deputy Minister. The program for 2022-2023 has a budget that exceeds 64 million euros, at the same time that in the 4.5 years of the previous SYRIZA government, no corresponding accommodation subsidy had ever been granted by the Ministry of Tourism, notes Mrs. Zaharaki.
Example of expenditure of the program amount
The beneficiary can use the amount of 150 euros once, but he can “break” the total amount and use it in different periods of time, in any way he wishes. For example, he can spend 50 euros on staying in a hotel during the summer months and use the remaining 100 euros for the same purpose in the fall, winter, next spring or early next summer. Thus, the Program also contributes to the goal of extending the tourist season to twelve months a year. In any case, for any question, you can submit your question via email [email protected]
