    `Hayastan' fund tries to enlarge involvedness of Armenian community of
    Russia in its activity


    YEREVAN, MARCH 12, ARMENPRESS: Works are being carried out in the
    direction of enlarging the involvedness of the Armenian community of
    Russia in the activity of `Hayastan' fund.

    Executive Director of the fund Ara Vardanyan told Armenpress that
    there are well-off Armenians in Russia, which are ready and want to
    participate in all the charitable initiatives in Armenia. According to
    him, the only issue is that the community of Russia is not unified.

    `In Russia there is not unification like in Armenian communities of
    other countries. That is, if it is possible to convey some message in
    other communities through one meeting, in Russia it is impossible.
    There are thousands of organizations, which have no connection with
    each other; there is not a single place where you can deliver a speech
    and that all hear about it,' Mr. Vardanyan said. Taking all this into
    consideration, the work in Russia is more complicated and time
    consuming. He expressed confidence that within years people will
    manage to achieve that Russia becomes leader in regard to quantity.

    The executive director of the fund reminded that in regard to
    donations to the fund, Russia is in the first place. After a
    charitable banquet organized last year in Russia, money of 10 million
    was gathered, while the rest 10 million is from the countries of the
    world, including Armenia. `It is not the money that is important for
    us, but the quantity of people,' Mr. Vardanyan said.
