In the framework of its continuous development effort in Armenia's
border villages, Hayastan All Armenian Fund signals the launch of
drinking water network restoration projects in Lori region's border
villages of Apaven and Dzoramut.
The projects have been made possible thanks to the contribution of
Armenian communities in Montreal, Canada and France via the Fund's
local affiliate offices. The realization of the projects will ensure
that in the near future the members of both communities will have
a stable and dependable access to potable water. At this point, the
construction works on the Apaven water pipeline are going full steam
ahead and the Dzoramut drinking water project is in the final stages of
the design process with the Fund's construction experts working on the
ground to ensure a sustainable and definitive solution to the problem.
Apaven, with its population of 130, and Dzoramut, population - 420,
face a variety of different challenges, many of which are shared by all
the border communities of Armenia and can be summed up as fundamental
lack of the life essential infrastructure. This is the issue that
the Fund is aiming to tackle through its Rural Development Program.
"People often got sick when drinking the water that came through the
rusty pipelines,"=2 0says Anush Saghabalyan from Apaven. "People had
almost lost their hope.
At first we didn't believe when we were told that the Hayastan Fund
was going to help us. Then the construction crews arrived and brought
a new hope to our village."
"We hope that the reconstruction of water pipelines in the villages of
Apaven and Dzoramut will bring relief to the people living in these
communities; communities that are just hundreds of meters away from
Armenia's state border and are vital for the future of our homeland,"
says Ara Vardanyan, the Acting Executive Director of Hayastan All
Armenian Fund. "I would like to extend my gratitude to the Armenian
communities in Canada and France whose patriotism and generosity has
made it possible to bring these essential initiatives to life."
