The Regional Executive Board of the Armenian Relief Cross (ARC) of
Syria this week informed that the $100,000, collected as part of the
ARS's "Assistance to Syrian-Armenian Schools Fund" is being distributed
to all Syrian-Armenian schools, the Armenian Weekly reports.
According to Anna Hagopian, the chairperson of the ARC of Syria
Regional Executive Board, 27 Armenian schools in Aleppo, Damascus,
Kesab, Latakia, Kamishli, and other towns have received funds from the
$100,000 endowment. "All the schools outside of Aleppo have been open
for months, while the upper classes of the Aleppo schools are held
in Armenian centers and in schools located in secure areas. We are
hopeful that schools will reopen in Aleppo, as well," Hagopian said.
"As we had previously announced, the sums received by the Armenian
schools will be allotted to needy students' tuitions, as well as
to the needs of the schools themselves, while also relieving the
financial burden on the parents," said ARS Central Executive Board
member Zepure E. Reisian.
