    "ARAGIL" CENTER UNITES PEOPLE

    Noyan Tapan
    Armenians Today
    Jun 27 2006

    KRASNODAR, JUNE 27, NOYAN TAPAN - ARMENIANS TODAY. The "Aragil" (stork)
    center of acquaintances headed by Arevik Safarian started to function
    from April, 2005, in the territory of the Surb Hovhannes Avetaranich
    (John The Evangelist) Armenian church in Krasnodar. According to
    Arevik, the main goal of the center was to organize assistance for
    those people who finds it difficult to create a family by himself. One
    of not less important tasks of the center is to assist marriages
    between Armenians in counter-balance to interracial marriages being
    practically shaped. The fact that the most part of men addressed to
    the center wants to link their life with Armenian women, deserves
    attention.

    To add, all Armenians above 18 years old may address to the center.

    According to the "Yerkramas" (country) newspaper of Armenians of
    Russia, as of today, five couples from those addressed to "Aragil"
    linked their fates.

    During a comparatively short period of time the center became famous
    not only in Krasnodar and in the country, but in Moscow as well from
    where a few letters were addressed to "Aragil." Attempts are made
    to establish ties with Armenia: the last example, a young man from
    Krasnodar even came to Yerevan to get acquainted with a girl.

    "Though many people would like to address to the center, however,
    there are restraining factors, and first of all, it is the shyness,
    the head of the center mentions. But there is nothing blameworthy in
    the center's assistance, creating a family is a very serious issue,
    isn't it. We have cases when parents address to us secretly from
    their children whom they want to help to create a family."

    "Aragil" attempts to establish ties with similar organizations
    of Armenia and Russia: in Arevik Safarian's opinion it will be
    useful. The head of "Aragil" mentions that it is not easy to establish
    acquaintances just by forms. It would be better to organize evening
    parties and festive events during which young people (and not so young
    ones) would have possibility to communicate and form some opinion
    about one another. This part of activity of the center will suppose
    financial expenses, and Arevik hopes that people are found soon who
    will sponsor similar events.
