Armenia Marriott Hotel Annual Build with the Fuller Center for Housing
Armenia
August 20, 2011, Aragatsotn Region, Kakavadzor Village -Armenia Marriott
hotel 20 staff members joined Fuller Center for Housing Armenia at the
building site helping to build the Mouradyan family house and giving a ray
of hope to the family of 5.
`... I have always dreamed of having a home like those in big cities with
all the necessary accommodations... we did not know where to go, where to
live... we have been living in a one roomed metal container, called domik,
for
a long time, the roof of which was deteriorated and it was leaking when
raining... Of course, it is already a vain to speak about any kind of
accommodation... it was just a room full of dangers: snakes and scorpions from
under the floor and water leaking from the roof... says 18 years old Narine,
the eldest daughter.
The Mouradyans were not able to save funds from their income and build the
house in 10 years, nor they could qualify to take loans from banks.
Realizing the vital essence of the housing problem Marriott Armenia hotel is
setting example by annual builds with Fuller Center for Housing Armenia and
this time hotel 20 staff members joined Fuller Center for Housing Armenia to
help make Mouradyan family dream come true. A family whose story brings
tears into one's eyes: `Our family was very large (14 members with uncles
and their families), so it was impossible to live in the paternal house,
therefore we were to move into the basement of granddad's house. I thought
no one; no living creature would be able to live in such conditions. Then my
uncle left for Russia and we moved into his house. At that time the
half-build house of my uncle seemed to me a palace: separate bedrooms for
kids, and real rays of sun instead of diminished light barely penetrating
through the small window of the basement' tells Narine.
It is encouraging to see, that for such corporation as Armenia Marriott
hotel, the success in business is based on such core values as the
realization of other people's having the right to live with dignity. Supporting
Fuller Center for Housing Armenia to build the Mouradyan house they help to
build hope, they help to build dignified future for one more Armenian
family.
`Spirit to Serve our Communities is one of the core values of Marriott
International. Armenia Marriott Hotel, being an integral part of the
Marriott family has always put great emphasis on community based projects
and we reach our hands to support our communities with all the possible ways
we can. We are excited with this wonderful cooperation with Fuller Center
for Housing, which every year brings together so many different
organizations and people with a same united goal of helping families in
need' says Ami Miron, Armenia Marriott hotel general manager.
