One of the most popular Armenian singers, Andre, will be performing
at its 9th Annual International Telethon to be aired worldwide on
Thanksgiving Day, November 23, Armenia Fund informs.
In May of this year Andre won 8th place in Greece for representing
Armenia at Eurovision song contest competing against contenders from
23 other nations.
Armenia was competing at the Eurovision song content for the first
time in 2006.
As part of the Rebirth of Artsakh project, proceeds from the live
12-hour program will benefit the regional development of Hadrut,
Nagorno Karabakh. The funds will go towards building new drinking water
pipelines as well as reconstructing healthcare facilities and schools
that fell victim to the devastating war. In an effort to eradicate
poverty in this war ravaged border region, Armenia Fund will also
implement a comprehensive agricultural development project to impact
1,000 farmers in 8 Hadrut villages. A similar regional development
program is currently underway in the northern Martakert region using
the funds raised during last year's Telethon 2005.
