    USAID/Lebanon Mission Director Denise Herbol presented $50,000 to the
    Armenian Sanatorium in the village of Azounieh in the Aley district,
    the U.S. embassy said in a statement on Friday.

    "USAID's assistance will allow the center to procure furniture for
    the elderly section," it said.

    The Armenian Sanatorium, which was established in 1937, provides high
    quality and low cost geriatrics and pulmonary disease treatment for
    135 elderly persons per year.

    Patients come from economically disadvantaged families mainly from
    the Armenian community and from villages near Azounieh. The non-profit
    center currently employs 60 persons.
