NEWS & EVENTS

Armenia: as the rest of the world, continues to struggle with finding the appropriate balance between health and safety. We continue life alongside coronavirus and couldn’t be indifferent to the lives of the most vulnerable families living in poverty and isolation therefore, the foundation gradually resumes its activities․

  • As not everyone has the opportunity to buy face masks, we decided to make face masks that will be donated to those in need.
  • At ALCF center we celebrated the Ascension of Jesus Christ. The residents wore traditional Armenian costumes and prepared a beautiful event.

MYRADOON

   Domestic violence has increased during corona virus lock down․ These days, we received many calls from abused women in need of shelter, as it was very dangerous for our shelter residents and their children, we decided to isolate the new comers in two of our post shelter homes for 14 days, then bring them back to the main building.
The participants of the “Post Shelter” program returned to their homes since they were allowed to work, but they needed a little support until they get back on track.
 We do our utmost to help the shelter residents with your help, because Your contributions are the only funds that help keep us going.

AID TO COMMUNITIES    

       In the frame of “Light of Hope” program we provided humanitarian aid to the families in dire need, observing all hygiene rules. Many families now need our help more than ever.
“Sponsor a family” program is ongoing. Your generous donations make participants of the program happier.
