    The 15th Meeting of the Board of Trustees



    The 15th meeting of the `Hayastan' All-Armenian Fund's Board of
    Trustees convened on May the 5th at the Government Reception House,
    Yerevan. The Meeting approved the 2005 report of the Executive Board.
    Then it discussed the agenda issues, which included also election of new
    Trustees. Three new trustees were elected to the Board-Mark Geragos,
    Hasmik Terterian and Mike Kharapian.

    One of the main issues of the Board Meeting was the `Rebirth of
    Artsakh' project which was approved last year. The project will go
    along this year and the 2006 Telethon will be devoted to it. The Board
    of Trustees decided to organize the Telethon on November 30. Amounts
    raised during the Telethon will be directed to rehabilitation and
    development of Hadrout and Mardakert regions.

    The Meeting touched on also the issue of border communities'
    development. Vardan Oskanian, Minister of Foreign Affairs, Trustee of
    the `Hayastan' Fund presented the project. A commission was set to
    study the development project and put forward suggestions on
    implementation of it jointly with other Himnadram projects. The
    commission involved trustees, chairs of the local committees and the
    Executive Director of the Fund.

    It was also decided to provide $25 000 to the families of the recent
    airliner crash victims through the donations of the Fund's worldwide
    affiliates. The Fund will go on assisting those families.

    A few days following the Meeting the major donor Jean Boghossian added
    $10,000 to the collected amount.
