    Renovation works in Khashtarak village health post have been completed.

    Through the Hayastan All-Armenian Fund's Netherlands Local Committee
    the building has been fully renovated. The total cost of the project
    is about 34 million AMD.

    Built in 1970s the health post had never been renovated which led to
    the poor condition of the building occupying about 300 m2. Only the
    administrative office, doctor's room and reception were functioning
    out of 13 rooms. There was no heating system and people had to use
    wood ovens to heat the rooms. The rain-water and thaw caused serious
    damage to the back wall of the building.

    Today not only the building has been completely renovated, but also
    the surrounding areas improved, a new external water pipeline and
    sewerage, obstruction for flood constructed.

    Fund's Executive board will also undertake full furnishing of the
    health post. Some 4,5 million drams has been provided for realization
    of this initiative.

    As a result people in Khashtarak village can get medical services in
    a new health post. People from neighboring Lusahovit, Aknaghbyur and
    Lusadzor villages can also visit this health care institution. The
    health post can serve around 400 visitors per month.

    Khashtarak is among the border villages involved in Hayastan
    All-Armenian Fund's Rural Developmen t Project which covers a few
    projects at a time. Besides the health post people in Khashtarak
    village will have a newly reconstructed school. The kindergarten
    project is in its design stage. And the agricultural machines provided
    by the Hayastan Fund facilitate farmers work in the village.

    Head of Khashtarak Community Administrationr Mr. Hayk Kamalyan assures
    that the Fund brought big changes in their everyday life. "I feel
    how the mood of people in Khashtarak has changed. We now have a sense
    of stability.

    One feels confident when there is someone who takes care of him,
    who simply thinks about him. I hope that with this good mood we'll
    be healthier, and the Health Post will serve more for preventive
    measures. We are very grateful to the Hayastan All-Armenian Fund."

    The Hayastan Fund Acting Executive Director Ara Vardanyan said:
    "Khashtarak is gradually standing on its own feet. This is our
    approach to the villages of Armenia and Karabakh: In Kashtarak,
    along with the completion of health post project, we go ahead with
    school reconstruction project and plan construction of a kindergarten."
