Hello there, my name is Vangelis Simakis, and I am a representative of A.T.A.X.T.O.I. – Backpack Brothers NPO. We are two brothers from Greece, passionate about volunteering and travel. Our journey began in 2012 during the economic crisis, when we organized local solidarity initiatives as students.

This spirit led to the creation of our volunteer group A.T.A.X.T.O.I. and, later, in 2019, the Backpack Brothers, combining travel with hands-on support for communities.

Since then, we have worked in Tanzania, Uganda, Nepal, Zanzibar, Colombia, and Kenya, helping local communities and spreading solidarity.

Today, our mission continues to grow across multiple regions, and we invite you to join us in building a world based on respect, humanity, and support.
