SERVE OUR COMMUNITY
Nana Golden Beach collaborates with tourism schools and gives the students the opportunity to gain practical experience in the hotel divisions. At the same time, the hotel aspires to employ the majority of its personnel from the local community of Heraklion. Nana Golden Beach supports the local market by buying products from regional suppliers whenever feasibly possible. In order to help associations and institutions, Nana Golden Beach donates equipment, furniture and clothing from renovations. Donations and sponsorship are given to charitable institutions and cultural activities in Crete on a regular basis.
Sponsorship is given to athletic associations and important economic aid to the Heraklion OFI football team, the Municipalities of Heraklion and Chersonissos, the Nikos Kazantzakis Foundation and to local hospitals, institutions and monasteries. On a cultural level, the KARATZIS S.A. Group has participated in the return of one painting of El Greco to Heraklion and in the film of director Yannis Smaragdis which relates to the life and works of the acclaimed artist. On issues of technology and research, the KARATZIS S.A Group has been a sponsor in congresses held by various academic institutions and has also financed research into subjects of general interest in the University of Crete and the Foundation for Research and Technology.
