The Armenian Relief Society implements humanitarian programs in
Armenia and Artsakh. In the recent years the Artsakh branch of ARS has
been founding and sponsoring nursery schools in Karabakh. ARS nursery
schools were opened in Stepanakert, as well as in different
regions. On September 29 the tenth ARSnursery school was opened in
Shoushi. At the opening ceremony the NKR vice minister of education,
culture and sport Slavik Asrian, mayor of Stepanakert Edward
Aghabekian, members of parliament, members of ARS from Armenia,
Artsakh andthe Diaspora were present. During the ceremony Armen
Topuzian was awarded with the medal `Mother's Gratitude' by the
committee â=80=9CMaternity' for his contribution to the establishment
of nursery schools. In his address Slavik Asrian said,` Before the
Artsakh war there were about 200 nursery schools, however, during the
war most of these were ruined. The philanthropists of Artsakh lent a
hand just in time. Owing to the programs implemented by the Armenian
Relief Society and the Armenian Evangelist Association the number of
nursery schools in Karabakh is growing. The government also makes
steps in this direction. I hope that soon we will restore the
situation in this sphere before the war.' The nursery school will
admit 60 parentless, disabled children, and children of poor
families. Edward and Virgine Msrlian living in San Francisco will
sponsor the nursery school, and they assured that the sponsorship will
be permanent because their children have promised to continue their
work. Soon the 11th ARS school will be opened in the village
Moshatagh, region of Kashatagh.
