    Hayastan All Armenian Fund donates computers
    to several institutions in Armenia and Artsakh

    Yerevan, May 5, 2009 - The Hayastan All Armenian Fund donated 120 computers
    to a multitude of schools, municipalities, and non-governmental
    organizations (NGOs) in Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh.

    The project, sponsored by Armenian-American benefactor George Asadorian and
    the U.S.-based Educational Association of Malatia, aims to foster
    institutional modernization and boost productivity, particularly within the
    framework of the Hayastan All Armenian Fund's ongoing educational-assistance
    efforts and Rural Development Program.

    Recipients of the project include major educational institutions such as
    Yerevan State University, Artsakh State University, and Yerevan State
    University of Architecture and Construction; elementary and secondary
    schools (the Khachaturyan Art School in Sisian, Nerkin Karmir School in
    Tavush, and Our Lady of Armenia Poghossian Educational Center in Gyumri);
    and rural municipalities in the Tavush Region (Apaga, Choratan, Chinari,
    Aygedzor, Tavush, Lusahovit, and Norashen).

    NGOs that have received computers include the Astghavard, Huys Kyank, and
    Pilatelpia organizations - all of which are dedicated to improving the lives
    of disabled children - as well as the UNDP HIV/AIDS Country Joint Program's
    information centers in the Lori and Shirak regions.

    "I hope that our fist collaborative effort with the Educational Association
    of Malatia will grow into a lasting partnership, as our shared goal is to
    advance educational excellence and sustainable economic development in our
    homeland," said Ara Vardanyan, the Hayastan All Armenian Fund's acting
    executive director.

    Vardanyan's sentiments were echoed by Mr. Asadorian, who said he is much
    honored by the fact that two newly established computer labs, at Artsakh
    State University and Yerevan State University's Economy Department, will be
    named after him.
