Pharmaceutical companies are major donors to civil society organizations worldwide, which has raised concerns about their influence on public health policy. This essay maps the donations of pharmaceutical companies to patient associations and scientific societies in Greece, examining the nature and extent of the support provided. The support provided includes financial donations, in-kind contributions and collaborations in research and awareness initiatives. While these donations may contribute to the ability of recipient organizations to meet their operational needs and to advocate for patients' interests, they also raise questions about the role of pharmaceutical companies in the formulation of public health policies. Further research is needed to understand the full extent of these donations and their impact on public health governance in Greece.
