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.
