The Paros Foundation based in Berkeley, California, launches the
project "Paros 100 for 100" and intends to implement 100 projects
in Armenia in commemoration of the 100th anniversary of the Armenian
Genocide. The foundation has been implementing different programs in
Armenia since 2006 and cooperates with six local companies.
Armen Alaverdyan, Director of the Unison NGO, which addresses the
problems of peoples with disabilities, attaches importance to the
"Paros" investments in their projects.
"In cooperation with Paros we want to encourage people with
disabilities to live a normal active life in Armenia," he told a
press conference today.
The Vanadzor Art School is also among the beneficiaries. Its Director
Gohar Israelyan says their school has become one of the best ones in
the city thanks to reconstruction, and many of their 265 pupils are
winners of respected international competitions.
On its website Paros Foundation has posted the projects that need
financing. Sponsors of the project will be invited to Armenia to
participate in the events, commemorating the 100th anniversary of
Armenian Genocide in 2015.
