    Hayastan All Armenian Fund supports education and low-income families in
    Tavush Region

    The Hayastan All Armenian Fund established a computer lab at the school of
    Aknaghbyur Village, in Armenia's Tavush Region. The donated equipment
    includes five computers, a copier, computer desks, and chairs.

    The project, sponsored by the Hayastan All Armenian Fund's U.S. East Coast
    affiliate, was made possible through a $5,000 contribution by Mr. Laurent
    Paulac of New York.

    The creation of the lab was met with great enthusiasm by the Aknaghbyur
    school's students and faculty, who culled their own resources to refurbish
    the room.

    "It is our hope that the new computer lab will significantly enhance
    learning processes at the Aknaghbyur school," said Ara Vardanyan, the
    Hayastan All Armenian Fund's acting executive director.

    The fund implemented an equally vital project in the neighboring village of
    Ditavan, by providing milch cows to low-income, multi-children families. The
    initiative was sponsored by the All Armenian Fund's U.S. East Coast
    affiliate.

    Varuzhan, a Ditavan resident whose family was one of three to receive
    assistance, was overjoyed to report that his cow has already given birth to
    a calf.
