    Kalaydjian Foundation Committee Announcement dated 17th February 2009 -
    The Kalaydjian Foundation is pleased to announce the start of two new
    programmes aimed at providing support for education at both secondary
    and advanced levels.

    As part of its efforts to provide targeted support in the present
    difficult economic climate, the Kalaydjian Foundation has decided to
    provide an annual grant to all Cypriot students who are graduates
    of Nareg elementary schools and are currently enrolled or will be
    enrolled in private secondary schools in Cyprus. This assistance,
    up to â~B¬400 per child, will be provided to all eligible applicants
    irrespective of their family's income level, starting from the academic
    year 2009-2010. Families who would be interested in receiving this
    grant should submit an application to Mr. Hagop Kasparian by September
    30th at the latest. Mr. Kasparian can be contacted on 22-429306.

    The Foundation's second programme is a scholarship that will provide
    free post-graduate education to gifted Armenian Cypriot students.

    The primary aim of this programme is to allow talented students,
    who would otherwise not have the chance to continue their education,
    the opportunity to receive a Master's degree and therefore enhance
    significantly their career prospects. To that end, the Kalaydjian
    Foundation has signed a collaboration agreement=2 0with the American
    University of Armenia in Yerevan.

    The Kalaydjian Foundation aims to send one Armenian Cypriot student
    every year to the AUA for higher education, starting from the
    academic year 2010-2011. It will provide a full scholarship that
    will cover the entire cost of tuition. It will also offer advice and
    assistance on other issues, such as accommodation in Yerevan. The
    deadline for applications is 31st March 2010. The admission criteria
    are stringent and include an undergraduate degree from a recognised
    university or college in Cyprus or Europe/America, and suitable
    work experience. Interested parties should contact the Foundation
    on [email protected]. More information on the AUA can be
    received at www.aua.am.
