    The program "Rock Aid Armenia",-- the proceeds of which will be aimed
    at restoring the Gyumri school N6, damaged during the earthquake--
    is ongoing.

    The program in Germany released a remix of "Smoke on the Water",
    which was recorded by a group of world-famous rock stars in 1989,
    and all proceeds were donated to the fund helping the affected by
    the earthquake in Armenia.

    This time, the funds from the sale of remixes of this song, will be
    spent on the restoration of the Gyumri schoolN6.

    In the framework of this program Ian Gillan, Tony Iommi recorded a
    new song "Out of my mind", funds from the sale of this CD, which will
    be released later this year, will also be donated to the fund Gyumri
    School N6. By the way Ian Gillan and Tony Iommi, joined a temporary
    project "Who Cares", funds from the concerts of the group will also
    be donated to help the Gyumri school N6. It is expected that the
    proceeds from the CD sales, will make tens of thousands of dollars.

    Under the "Rock Aid Armenia", $ 75,000 has already been collected,
    $ 45,000 by the rock stars and $30,000 from the Government of Armenia.

    In all, the restoration of the school would cost $250,000.

    By the way the design of a new school building is also on charitable
    basis prepared by the Armenian Diaspora architect Rafik Aschyan.
