Yerevan . OREANDA-NEWS . August 07, 2008. Childrens Arts School of the
village of Odzun is completely renovated and refurbished thanks to AMD
18.4 million donation from VivaCell. The school now has a new local
heating and hot water supply system, and a completely new rooftop,
reported the press-centre of VivaCell.
The renovated Arts School was officially opened jointly by VivaCell
General Manager Ralph Yirikian and Deputy Marzpet of Lori Arsen
Darbinyan with a ribbon-cutting ceremony.
VivaCell continues on implementing its large-scale CSR programs having
long-term positive impact on the rural communities of Armenia. This
time the Company chose to direct the focus of its CSR on one of the
oldest and largest villages of Armenia Odzun, famous for the richness
of its historical-cultural and religious sites, and the prominent
people born in the village.
Taking into account the number of Odzun inhabitants, as well as the
need to encourage the healthy esthetical education among children in
the villages of Armenia, VivaCell allocated funds for the complete
renovation of Childrens Arts School of the village of Odzun. In
addition to new rooftop and local heating system, new windows and doors
have been installed, and a local heating and water supply system have
been put in place in the school.
The Arts School was founded in 1970 and is the only arts school
serving 8 neighboring villages. The Arts School includes the following
sections: piano, as well as string, wind, folk instruments, and a
painting class.
Since for many years the system of Arts Schools in Armenia has been
in decline, VivaCell considers it as of prime importance to sponsor
the revival of the system.
Following the ribbon-cutting ceremony, VivaCell General Manager Ralph
Yirikian noted: We stand here today, in one of the Armenias ancient
settlements, proud to be sons and daughters of Armenia. VivaCell
commitment to support the renovation and refurbishment of the Arts
School is determined by our obligation to be worthy descendants of
our predecessors we had to create here in Odzun a modern Arts School
to encourage the younger generation of Odzun to become worthy of
its cultural past. And as a socially-responsible corporate citizen,
VivaCell is allocating part of its revenues to help create bridges
between the younger generation of Armenia and our national culture.
VivaCell social investment in Odzun is not limited to the renovation
of its Childrens Arts Center and its refurbishment. The company also
presented the administration of the village with a garbage-collecting
vehicle worth of AMD 9 million.
