The Educational Fund of the ARS Sponsor-A-Child Program
Nearly two decades ago, in the aftermath of the devastating earthquake
of 1988 and the ensuing liberation war of Artsakh, numerous severely
damaged communities of our Homeland were filled with thousands of
orphaned children. In order to relieve -- at least partially -- the
suffering of these parentless youngsters, in 1992« the ARS started the
Sponsor-A-Child program which -- with the generosity of concerned
sponsors and devoted members of ARS entities -- after almost
one-and-a-half decades of uninterrupted service, continues to send
annual payments to 3,500 or-phans.
Today, there are less than 300 orphans on our lists in need of sponsors.
Over the past 14 years, around 7,000 orphans have received the
uninterrupted assistance of this program. At this time, in view of the
fact, that the majority of those orphans has already reached an age when
one must think of making a living at a suitable career in a chosen
profession -- or trade -- as productive members of the community, the
ARS 68th International Convention passed a resolution to create an
Educational Fund for orphans of Armenia and Artsakh who have reached the
age of 18. This fund will become viable through the generosity of
sponsors who are willing to continue their annual contributions of $130,
as well as additional tax exempt donations, promoting the higher
education of these parentless young men and women.
Assured of the assistance of our communities, we invite our fellow
Armenians to remember the ARS Orphans Educational Fund when they make
tax-exempt donations in lieu of flowers, or other occasions. Donations
to this Fund can be done through local ARS entities.
The ARS Central Executive Board appeals to all -- members, supporters
and friends -- of the Sponsor-A-Child program, to give to its
Educational Fund their moral and financial support, in order to bring a
program, conceived and born in the blood and tears of tragic
circumstances, to an auspiciously beneficial completion.
