MYRADOON

Myradoon shelter is full of life. We try to imbed the concept of home, family, children in our residents. Only by understanding this they can build their lives. They have responsibility to raise their children happy and healthy. We give importance to working habits. We also teach them that with their rights come responsibilities. Our girls participate in our classes of sewing, cooking, computer, manicure/pedicure and skin care.  May 26th was a beauty day in Myradoon. We gave importance to the fact that they should feel worthy of being cared for.

Our residents work in the green house and they tasted the results of their work. We already have cucumbers and tomatoes. We give importance to this as they can use these skills in their villages after they leave the shelter.

AID TO THE COMMUNITIES

ALCF continues its light of hope program. Distributing to boarder villages and families in need that write to us. This month we gave aid to 145 underprivileged families in 3 villages, We signed up many Syrian Armenians as part of our program. All the families that needed assistance received clothes, shoes, blankets, housewares and kitchenware. New Life organization donated kitchenware and blankets.  We are grateful to all who assist us in making this world a better place.
