Digital Innovation Agency SarkissianMason's Charitable Foundation
ONEArmenia Launches Second Campaign
NEW YORK, Dec. 20, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- SarkissianMason, a digital
innovations agency known for their dedication to social good and
charitable causes, has just launched the second fundraising
installment of ONEArmenia, a first-of-its-kind initiative for the
developing nation that bears its name.
After successfully funding their initial effort -a kindergarten in the
Armenian village of Moshatagh, whose construction begins in March- the
organization now turns its attention to bringing clean drinking water
to the nearly 500 people in and around the village of Karotan. By
diverting clean water from a nearby spring into a simple concrete
basin, the risk of water-borne illness will be significantly reduced.
Additionally, the funded project will provide jobs to local residents
during its two-month construction period. Learn more about the Gift of
Water campaign here: http://www.indiegogo.com/onearmenia-giftofwater
ONEArmenia has its aim set on breaking down the growing cynicism
around donating to charitable causes in Armenia, a nation where nearly
36% of the population lives under the global poverty line. The
non-profit platform takes the many disparate charities looking to
empower and aid the people of Armenia, and funnels them through a
central repository to more efficiently affect change. ONEArmenia also
acts as a voice for a growing population of disaffected youths who've
grown frustrated with a corrupt government and socio-economic
disparities.
ONEArmenia also aims to create a new standard in transparent giving: a
key aspect of the foundation - and a key differentiator from other
cause-based startups - is its complete and total transparency, with
each project's status updated and posted to the site weekly. Each
individual initiative is funded through an Indiegogo campaign.
