  • Sponsorship Needed For Lilit Shakhkyan At Mari Izmirlyan Orphanage

    SPONSORSHIP NEEDED FOR LILIT SHAKHKYAN AT MARI IZMIRLYAN ORPHANAGE

    Mari Izmirlyan Orphanage is a state orphanage in Yerevan housing
    approximately 100 children with special needs between the ages of
    6 and 18. The Sponsorship Program is the primary mechanism through
    which SOAR provides support to specific orphaned Armenian children.

    Each week we highlight an orphaned Armenian child. This week, we
    highlight Lilit Shakhkyan at Mari Izmirlyan Orphanage.

    Name: Lilit Shakhkyan

    Orphanage: Mari Izmirlyan Orphanage

    Gender: Female

    DOB: March 6, 2004

    Father's Name/Occupation: Aram Shakhkyan/Unknown

    Mother's Name/Occupation: Shushanik Kavalyan/Unknown

    Siblings: None

    Family History: Unknown

    Health:

    Lilit has a serious hearing disability. In 2011, SOAR contributed
    to the costs of ear surgery for Lilit in which a Baha device was
    implanted in her ear. Lilit currently attends a special school for
    the hearing impaired.

    Special interests, talents, hobbies, and future aspirations:

    Lilit likes to be in the focus of attention. She likes to participate
    in individual trainings, to play with constructive games, play
    with dolls, and play with bright-colored toys. She does not like to
    communicate with peers. She can compare objects and find similarities
    and differences. Mostly she communicates with facial expressions
    and behavior. Her future aspirations are to develop social skills,
    to use voice for communication, and to pronounce sounds.

    If you would like to sponsor Lilit, please contact George S.

    Yacoubian, Jr., [email protected] or enroll through the
    Sponsorship Program by selecting Lilit from Mari Izmirlyan.

    Thank you in advance for your support!
