Opening ceremonies of the Hayastan Fund three completed initiatives -
Togh School, Hadrut and Spitakashen water mains followed each other
in Nagorno Karabakh.
Students of the Togh School have started the new academic year
in improved conditions. The two-storey building of the school,
severely damaged in the 1988-1992 conflict, is now standing new and
welcoming. Today some 100 students attend the school. Years later,
today's sixteen first-graders' lasting memory of their school
will be of an attractive place to study at and a good number of
accomplishments.
"I believe this school will be a stimulus both for the students and
the teachers to do even better" said Ara Vardanyan in his speech.
The upgraded part of the school has enough space and facilities to
also accommodate children from the neighboring communities of Jrakuis,
Mariamadzor, Taghut, Tsakuri Hakaku, Mokhrenes, and Tumi. Not only
the classrooms are now well-lit and clean, they are nicely furnished
and will be heated during the winter months. Renovation of the left
block of the Togh School (around US 139 million AMD) was funded within
the Artsakh Rebirth Project and was carried out through the Hayastan
Fund Western Region Affiliate with direct contribution from the AGBU
Manoogian-Demirdjian school students and pa rents.
Among those attending the opening ceremony were the Nagorno Karabakh
Prime Minister Araik Harutyunyan, Head of the Hadrut Administration
Valerik Gevorkyan, Hayastan Fund Acting Executive Director Ara
Vardanyan, Western Region Affiliate Executive Director Sargis
Kotanjian, Minister of Civil Construction Anahit Vardanyan employees
of the Fund, contractors and others.
"One thing that is special about this project is that the school
has been renovated with the money collected by students and their
parents of a similar school", said Sargis Kotanjian addressing the
participants of the ceremony.
"Now when we are implementing reforms to integrate into the
international educational system, our school will undoubtedly meet
the necessary standards. The laboratories of physics, chemistry, and
informatics are adequately equipped and a great help to the teaching
staff in the teaching process. We wouldn't even dream about it a few
years ago", said the School Principal Vladimir Ghahryan.
Following the opening ceremony of the Togh School, the officials
left for Hadrut to attend the opening ceremony of the Togh-Hadrut
water main. "We realize how important water supply is in most parts
of Nagorno-Karabakh", said the Fund Acting Executive Director Ara
Vardanyan.The Hadrut city water main project with the total cost of
around 420 million AMD was implemented within the Telethon 2006, and
was mainly sponsored by the Fund's French local committee. Within
the project a 22 km water pipe was installed from Arjaghbyur to
Hadrut. Thanks to the project, water is run by gravity now and it will
provide the city households will much needed water of a better quality.

provide water to the Spitakashen community of around 470. The project
worth about 80 million AMD was sponsored by the Hayastan Fund Argentine
