Financial Assistance for Families with Three or More Children
This year, LAE/OPEKA is again implementing the financial assistance programme for 2,500 mothers in farming families with three children and 600 with four or more children, who are insured with or retired from e-EFKA (OGA).
The programme is for 2,500 mothers with three children and 600 mothers with four or more children in farming families. Mothers must also be healthcare beneficiaries with active insurance coverage; in particular, their children must have healthcare coverage derived from an LAE/OPEKA beneficiary.
To participate in the programme, beneficiaries must submit an online application through the dedicated online application of OPEKA (www.idika.gr/lae-miteres/) from 28 July 2025 through 22 September 2025.
Eligibility requirements: Mothers with three children must have three children and mothers with four or more children must have at least four. The children must be unmarried and unemployed, and under 18 years of age; under 19 if continuing secondary education; under 24 if studying at a higher or tertiary education institution in Greece or abroad, attending the post-secondary apprenticeship year at a vocational upper secondary school (EPAL), or studying at a Higher Vocational Training School (SAEK/IEK; formerly IEK); or have a disability rating of at least 50%. For the purposes of the age limits, a child is considered to reach the age of 18, 19, or 24 on 31 December 2025, regardless of their month of birth.
Each eligible mother with four or more children will receive EUR 1,000, while each eligible mother with three children will receive EUR 700.
