Armenia Fund USA Announces Operation Blessing International's Donation
of $569,000 of Medicines
United Armenian Fund Makes their Safe Arrival and Distribution Possible
for Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh
NEW YORK, New York - Armenia Fund USA is pleased to announce the generous
donation of medicines valued at $569,000 for medical centers and healthcare
providers in the Republics of Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh. The humanitarian
aid provided by Operation Blessing International of Virginia Beach, VA
includes much-needed, high quality medicines- including antibiotics- which
are often unavailable and cost-prohibitive to obtain. Founded in 1978,
Operation Blessing International is a non-profit relief and development
organization dedicated to bringing hope to millions through hunger relief,
medical care, outreach programs, and disaster relief.
Armenia Fund USA's partnership with Operation Blessing International spreads
a powerful message of caring and humanitarian relief and make it possible to
reach those in need.
Additionally, Armenia Fund USA is indebted to United Armenian Fund (UAF).
For the third time in recent months, UAF made it possible to ship free of
charge items critically needed for the well-being and survival of the
Armenian people in the homelands. This time the shipment, which weighs more
than 6,000 pounds, is destined for polyclinics and medical centers
throughout Armenia and Karabakh. United Armenian Fund, through its
humanitarian services and strong relationship with the governments of both
republics, was vital to securing both the clearance of the medications by
the Ministries of Health of both Armenia and the NKR and, ultimately, their
transport from Operation Blessing International's warehouses in Virginia to
Yerevan, Armenia through UAF's 137th humanitarian airlift scheduled to
arrive in mid-March.
The Ministries of Health of Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh have each expressed
their appreciation to Armenia Fund USA, Operation Blessing International and
the United Armenian Fund for making this humanitarian relief available. A
great support to both republics striving to improve their healthcare
systems, the medications will be available to medical facilities like
Armenia Fund USA's newly-constructed Armine
Pagoumian Polyclinic and Diagnostic Center in Stepanakert, Nagorno-Karabakh.
Located in the region's capital and replacing the previous Soviet-era clinic
that was seriously damaged during the Armenian-Azeri conflict, it is the
first and only full care outpatient medical center in the Republic of
Nagorno-Karabakh.
