During the recent years the nature of benevolent activity in Armenia
has changed. According to the President of the corresponding Commission
Simon Ter-Simonyan, used toys, shoes and computers are not imported
to Armenia. Above all, the monitors of computers of older generation
comprise an environmental danger. According to the decision of the
Commission, it has been banned to import used monitors for charity
purposes.
The import of used clothes has been restricted with about 90 percent.
According to the Head of the Commission, there is need for this,
especially in frontier regions. To exclude the disputes over the
sale of clothes imported for charity purposes, there will be a sign
"not for sale" on all the clothes.
There are more than 1 000 charity organizations in Armenia. These
are in most part branches of large charity organizations.
