EVENTS & MYRADOON 

       This month was full of joyful events and celebrations!!!    

  •  Our Founder/Executive Director Seta Ghazarian came to Armenia. She brought gifts and joy to our center. It’s always amazing to see Mrs. Seta in our center.
  • We celebrated Palm Sunday in Parakar church. Our founder  brought with her 200 crosses made of palm leaves from America. The ladies of the 40 Martyrs church gifted those to us through Maro Tufenkjian a friend of Mrs. Seta. All the parishioners enjoyed wearing these crosses. It was something new to experiencein Armenia.
  • We also celebrated Easter. Our residents went to church and afterwards they gathered around the table which was full of Easter goodies.
  •  With our assistant managers, the residents of Myradoon,  17 mothers and 26 children  went to  Yerevan State Puppet Theater and had a great and unforgettable time.
