The Order of Beneficence (Greek: Τάγμα της Ευποιΐας, romanizedTágma tis Eipoiías) is an order of Greece which was established in 1975 by law no.106/1975, using the same name and same insignia as that of the order instituted in the previous governance of the Kingdom of Greece, although a separate order with different statutes. 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 fact that the order is awarded to women does not mean that the other Greek decorations are awarded exclusively to men.

The order has three symbols: a "badge", a "star", and a "ribbon". The badge is a five-petaled flower, enameled in blue. The star is a silver eight-pointed star with straight rays. The ribbon is an orange ribbon with blue edges.
