    HAYASTAN ALL-ARMENIAN FUND PROVIDES ESSENTIAL FURNITURE TO 85 ARTSAKH SCHOOLS

    The Hayastan All-Armenian Fund's second major school-furniture
    project, launched in August of this year, is nearing completion. The
    beneficiaries of the initiative are 85 schools across Artsakh -
    including those in the cities of Stepanakert and Shushi as well
    as the regions of Askeran, Martakert, Martuni, Hadrut, Shahumyan,
    and Kashatagh. The campuses will receive various furniture items
    essential to teachers and students alike. The project is sponsored
    by the Armenia Fund U.S. Western Region.

    The donated furniture, which includes more than 1,000 teacher chairs
    and 1,300 cabinets, is being manufactured by the HATM company of
    Gyumri, Armenia. To date a large proportion of the order has been
    fulfilled and shipped to Artsakh. The furniture will be distributed
    by the Artsakh Ministry of Education, with priority given to schools
    that need immediate assistance.

    "High-quality school amenities are of course a prerequisite to
    a productive learning environment," said Ara Vardanyan, executive
    director of the Hayastan All-Armenian Fund. "The new furniture donated
    to schools in Artsakh will help ensure creature comforts and ultimately
    play its role in contributing to scholastic achievement."

    Earlier this year, the Hayastan All-Armenian Fund's French affiliate
    sponsored the provision of new furniture to more than 100 schools in
    Artsakh. The initiative has resulted in comfortable and well-appointed
    classrooms as well as science and computer labs for over 10,000
    students.
