Annual International Telethon. This year's telethon will highlight the
organization's 15 years of achievements as well as celebrate the 15th
Anniversary of the Independence of the Republic of Armenia. Since
1991, Armenia Fund has rendered more than $160 million in short term
humanitarian aid as well as long term infrastructure development
project. The organization was instrumental for urgently facilitating
the critical energy needs of the fledgling Armenian republic in from
1991 - 1994. In addition to its relief aid, the organization has
constructed major infrastructure that includes rural roads and
highways, drinking water and irrigation networks, healthcare
facilities, schools, and cultural and historical projects'
rehabilitation.
Proceeds from Telethon 2006 will benefit the war torn region of Hadrut
in Nagorno Karabakh. Among various major projects, the plan calls for
the reconstruction of a regional hospital, a series of new schools,
new water pipelines and distribution networks, as well a comprehensive
regional agricultural development program all designed to enhance the
socio-economic standards of the region. The plan will draw parallels
to the Martakert Regional Development plan, which is currently
underway, after months of planning and fund collection.
