    NORK CHILDREN's HOME HAS NEW ROOF

    Yerevan, May 2, 2007 - The Hayastan All-Armenian Fund completed
    the reconstruction of the roof of the Yerevan Children's Home. The
    renovation of the 1191 sq. m roof was sponsored by the Hayastan
    All-Armenian Fund Australia affiliate with a 13 million AMD donation.

    The roof was last renovated in 1984; the sheds were fairly
    damaged. Today, both buildings of the Yerevan Children's Home have
    fire resistant roofs and new shades.

    In January 2006, the Hayastan All-Armenian Fund installed central
    gas heating in the Children's Home.

    The project was sponsored by the Hayastan Fund US East Coast affiliate,
    on funds donated by Hagop Giritlian.

    The principal of institute, Lena Karapetyan says, "There are 41
    newborns and 35 children under the age of 5 living at the Children's
    Home. Not doubt, heated rooms are essential for them. So far, we
    depended on electric heaters, which was costly and inefficient.

    Now the whole building is well heated. The renovation of the roof
    was another priority for us to deal with".

    Thanks to this initiative the Yerevan Children's Home is now a warmer
    place for children to live in.
