For just $10, you can give a child the opportunity to experience cultural events and sites, exhibits, museums, and excursions across Armenia—activities they otherwise wouldn’t have the opportunity to enjoy!

Anyone who has visited or lived in Armenia knows that it offers some of the world’s most stunning cultural heritage sites. From churches and monuments to rugged slopes and mountain ranges, Armenia’s rich heritage and impressive landscapes are awe-inspiring and offer Armenians an opportunity to engage with their history and culture. Sadly, many children in Armenia never get to experience the richness and beauty of their own culture–even when it’s at their fingertips. This is because every third child in Armenia is deprived and living in poverty.

Over the last 20 years, Family and Community NGO has been working to develop the potential of vulnerable children and their families. They now serve 450 children and their families annually at five centers in the Armavir, Tavush, and Shirak regions, including children and families displaced and affected by the 2020 Artsakh War.

Family and Community’s successful model is based on national values and grounded in international best practices. They don’t just offer children social services. They ensure that children take part in life-enhancing educational and recreational activities that strengthen social cohesion and help them reach their full potential.

Our $18,000 goal would give all 450 children at Family and Community’s five centers across the country the opportunity to see and engage with parts of Armenia outside of their own communities.

This has been a tremendously difficult year for many children across Armenia and Artsakh. Let’s come together this holiday season and give them a chance to experience something uplifting and beautiful–memories they will cherish for a lifetime.
