"There is no greater achievement than inspiring the most vulnerable in society to reach their true potential."

JOHN MICHAEL MOUSKOS, FOUNDER OF THE J.M. MOUSKOS FOUNDATION

The Mouskos Foundation was founded by John Michael Mouskos in 2014 to support inspirational and visionary initiatives. In its everyday activities the Foundation develops and implements exciting ideas that make a significant contribution to the lives of young people and communities in the areas of culture, education and welfare.

The stepping-stones of the Foundation were laid in 2004 with the creation of the Breathing Life Trust, a UK registered charity which established the Breathing Life Lung Centre for Children in Nicosia, Cyprus (which now treats 6000 children a year) and The Art for Life Prize - an international poetry and art competition for young people.

The Mouskos Foundation is currently developing ideas for a new international Bicommunal Museum of Contemporary Art in Nicosia, Cyprus.

The Mouskos Foundation has several alliances with academic, health institutions and Government agencies, including: The Ministry of Health and Education of the Republic of Cyprus, Great Ormond Street Hospital, The Fitzwilliam College at Cambridge University, The UK-Cyprus Enterprise Council, The American Alpine Club, The Cyprus Institute of Neurology and Genetics, The Greek Mountaineering Federation and The Municipality of Nicosia.
