    HAYASTAN ALL-ARMENIAN FUND TO MAKE NEW CONTRIBUTIONS TO SYRIAN ARMENIANS

    12:31, 21 February, 2013

    YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 21, ARMENPRESS: The Hayastan All-Armenian Fund
    continues to help Syrian-Armenian community with funds raised through
    Telethon 2012.

    As Hayastan All-Armenian Fund told Armenpress, recently the fund
    provided US $100,000 (raised through the Radiothon of Lebanon), and
    50,000 euros (raised through the Pan-European Phoneathon) to pay the
    salaries of Armenian-school teachers in Aleppo. In the next three
    months the Fund will contribute an additional US $200,000 to various
    Syrian-Armenian-relief projects, through the Catholicosate of the Great
    House of Cilicia. The amount will be disbursed in two installments.

    In the meantime, the fund continues to pay the annual tuition of
    Syrian-Armenian students who currently attend various colleges and
    universities in Armenia. In recent months, the Fund has underwritten
    the education of 69 such students, providing close to 17.2 million
    drams and coordinating the project with Armenia's Ministry of Diaspora
    and institutions of higher education. The Fund will allocate around
    11 million drams in additional contributions to sustain the project.
