The Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF) is a philanthropic organization established upon Stavros Niarchos' death in 1996. Niarchos was one of the world's largest transporters of oil and owned the largest supertanker fleet of his time. The Foundation has offices in Athens, New York, and Monaco, and provides grants in more than 130 countries. The Foundation is led by Andreas Dracopoulos, great-nephew of Stavros Niarchos, and his cousins Spyros and Philip Niarchos who serve as co-presidents.
