This time world champion Suzy Kentikyan punches to fight homelessness in
Armenia
On July 30 Lilit Asatryan leading Armenian Young Women Association and the
world boxing WBA ? WIBF champion Suzy Kentikyan, joined Fuller Center for
Housing Armenia to build with Martirosyan family in Haytagh village, Armavir
region.
This was not the first time when Armenian Young Women Association led by
Lilit Asatryan was joining those in housing need by their volunteer
contribution to help the families and to encourage others to volunteer. On
their initiative Suzy Kentikyan used the strength of her muscles to fight
the homelessness away from her homeland.
"I am very glad that I can be useful somehow to those in housing need as
well...I wish they finish their home as soon as possible and move in" said
Suzy.
Suzy Kentikyan, her sister and her grandfather arrived to Armenia from
Northern Hollywood as well as AYWA group consisted of 15 volunteers helped
Martirosyan family to lay concrete waterproof layer around the house.
"We will remain strong as long as fragile women like Lilit volunteer with us
from year to year and thus make their contribution to the brighter future of
our families. We do become stronger, when celebrated sportsmen and
sportswomen are standing next to us and build with the needy in Armenia. We
are grateful, as the power of our compatriots is extremely valuable for our
mission to give children an opportunity to live in safe homes and to have
safe future," said Armen Avetisyan, the Executive Director of Fuller Center
for Housing Armenia" I am sure together we will win in this battle against
poverty housing in Armenia".
Martirosyan family got a chance to build a house many years ago, when they
received their plot of land for building. But it is impossible to start
construction and to finish a house with the earning of a locksmith. They
could only erect the walls and had no means to finish the house and make
their dream of own house come true. "When we learnt that our family was
selected as partner family of Fuller Center for Housing Armenia, we were so
happy, realizing that now we have an opportunity to complete our home. And
now when such people join us and work with us we are proud and grateful"
said Sargis Martirosyan.
The Fuller Center for Housing Armenia is working to eliminate poverty
housing by providing long term, interest free loans and by assisting with
volunteers helping low-income families to build simple, comfortable,
affordable houses and renovate their houses. For more information, please

This year the organization aims to support 100 needy families.
