It is conferred by the President of the Republic as a moral reward for women especially, Greek or foreigner who have contributed good services to the country.

The overall design is clearly derived from the then-recently abolished British Order of the Indian Empire.

There are four versions of the badge : All four versions feature an obverse central disc bearing a portrait of the Theotokos with the Divine Child in Her arms with the legend "ΕΥΠΟΙΙΑ" («Beneficence») on a white enamel ring.

The Royal Order of Beneficence (Greek: Τάγμα της Ευποιΐας) is an order of knighthood of the Greek Royal Family that was established in 1948 by King Pavlos I, following the death of King George II of Greece, in accordance with his wishes.

It is conferred by the Head of the Royal House of Greece as a dynastic Decoration for women especially, Greek and foreign, for the good services they have rendered to the Fatherland in the field of charity as well as for their performance in the arts and letters.
