    living in a shipping container...Sharing your professional
    knowledge with someone working in the same field in Armenia...Volunteering
    a week or two, or longer, of your time to participate in one of the programs
    doing service projects in Armenia can be a life-changing experience!
    AGBU/Chicago has assembled a number of the most prominent programs,
    including some based in Chicago or with strong ties here, so you can learn
    more about how their efforts are helping Armenia, match one with your

    future. Each program has a fascinating story to tell about the particular
    focus of its efforts, its impact in the country and on its program
    participants.
    Program representatives and/or previous participants will be on hand to
    give brief presentations on their program's features and benefits, and to
    share their experiences. Each will have a display table with informational

    going to Armenia, please pass the word along! Free admission.
