History

Welcome to our Toastmasters Athens HAU page,  the place where leaders are made. 

Toastmasters International is an Educational Non-Profit Organisation established by Ralph Smedley in 1924. The first meeting ever was held at the YMCA building on October 22, 1924. 

The purpose of its constitution was to establish great speakers and thus great leaders. That is why many famous speakers around the world have passed through Toastmasters and great speakers always recommend us. 

Today, the organization’s membership exceeds 280,000 in more than 14,700 clubs in 144 countries helping its members. become more confident speakers, communicators, and leaders.

Our club was the first club established in Greece by Barbara Kondilis, a member of the educational staff of HAU back in 2005 with the registered Club No: 822866. Our club holds English-speaking meetings only and due to its history, always maintains high standards of education and attracts people highly motivated with their personal development and learning.
