SEVAN, SEPTEMBER 18, NOYAN TAPAN - ARMENIANS TODAY. Sevan's
kindergarten N 3 was reopened after the renovation and repair work done
with the financing of the Action de Soutien l'Enfance De'munie (ASED)
Swiss NGO. 150 children aged from 2 to 6 go to this kindergarten.
This is ASED's first program in Armenia, the implementation of which
became possible with the assistance of donors, including two private
foundations, Foundation Boghossian in Brussels, Foundation Armenia
in Geneva, Republic and Canton of Geneva, Sevan Mayor's Office,
Banque Pictet in Geneva, Armenian Benevolent Union of Switzerland.
As Dominique Dominice, the Coordinator of ASED Armenia, said during
the reopening ceremony of the kindergarten built as far back as in the
early 1960-s, children are the most important asset that we have, do
not forget that today's children will become the leaders of tomorrow.
Claudin Bagdjan, a representative of the Foundation Armenia in
Geneva founded in 1971, added that the Foundation was created by many
successors of the 250 Armenian children who settled in Geneva as far
back as in 1922.
According to him, though Switzerland and Armenia are separated by long
distance, the kindergarten renovation program has been implemented,
which is the result of great traditions of friendship and brotherhood
between many generations of Armenian and Swiss peoples.
Sevan Mayor Gevorg Malkhasian and Director of kindergarten N 3 Anahit
Gharibian expressed their gratitude to the benefactors.
After the opening ceremony the servants of the Armenian Apostolic
Church conducted the ceremony of "blessing" the kindergarten, then
the children expressed their gratitude by singing and dancing.
