Surmelian Fund
This year, Armenian General Benevolent Union has donated a printing
office to the Writers Union for mutual cooperation, reported Writers
Union President Levon Ananian. He noted that AGBU, over the years, has
realized various scholarly publication projects with the Writers Union.
The printing office equipment is being imported from China.

writer Levon Zaven Surmelian, who bequeathed his legacy to AGBU. Ananian

Writers Union, where renovation work is currently going on. The launch
of the press is slated to take place in two months. According to the
Writers Union president, this printing office will be of great help in
the work of publishing contemporary literature.
