    DIASPORA BUILDS ANOTHER SCHOOL

    Azat Artsakh - Nagorno Karabakh Republic (NKR)
    09 Jan 05

    American Armenian benefactor Anush Matevossian decided to support the
    construction of a school building in Stepanakert. This was
    A. Matevossian's response to the request of the vice chairman of the
    board of directors of the Armenian Assembly of America Annie Totah to
    sponsor the building. Annie Totah visited the building site of the
    school together with NKR first lady Inna Ghukassian who sponsors the
    project. Last December Anush Matevossian who is one of the founders of
    the museum of genocide of Armenians in the Ottoman Empire in
    Washington, donated 275 thousand US dollars. The money was transferred
    to the Armenian Relief Fund in New York, which will deal with the
    construction of the school.

    According to the executive director of the fund Garnik Nanagyulian,
    the organization aims to implement the project in close cooperation
    with the Nagorni Karabakh authorities. The school will mainly admit
    the children of refugeeswho were forced to leave Azerbaijan at the
    beginning of the 1990's. Forthis undertaking NKR President Arkady
    Ghukassian thanked Anush Matevossian during their telephone talk.
