Christos Stylianides, the European Commissioner for Humanitarian Aid and Crisis Management, said Saturday the money would be used to support refugee schooling, food stamps, heating and living facilities for unaccompanied minors.
He spoke in the northern Greek city of Thessaloniki after meeting Greek government officials.
Some 60,000 refugees and migrants are stranded in Greece due to European border closures.
The money was pledged a day after U.S.-based Human Rights Watch strongly criticized the government for continuing to use police cells to house unaccompanied migrant children.
