VivaCell-MTS, a subsidiary of "Mobile TeleSystems" OJSC, informs on the
opening solemn ceremony of the Orran-Krikorian new block in Vanadzor.
The new building is situated in the heart of the town and is to serve
children of economically deprived families, as well as lonely and
helpless elderly. The center was built with the generous support
of CIPS NGO (a winner of a grant program held by the Ministry of
Foreign Affairs of Italy), British-Armenian benefactors Krikor and
Anna Krikorian, VivaCell-MTS, and other generous benefactors.
The Orran Vanadzor branch was established in October 2009 with the
support of the Open Society Institute and VivaCell-MTS. Prior to the
completion of the construction of the new center, Orran operated out
of leased premises. Orran was able to realize its dream of having a
comfortable center of its own because of the generosity and cooperation
of a number of individuals and organizations. Currently there are
55 children embraced by the program. The new center will allow the
inclusion of many more beneficiaries.
"It is a priceless feeling to see happiness in people's eyes especially
those that have endured the harshness of life. Children have all the
right to be properly sheltered and covered, they should only experience
love and warmth and above all this is our duty as adults to make this
a reality," said VivaCell-MTS General Manager Ralph Yirikian.
In the morning the center will serve as a soup kitchen for the
elderly. In the afternoon, the children will come to the center at
the completion of their classes. Here the children will receive a
nutritious hot meal and help from Orran's experienced and skilled
teachers. The center will provide the children the opportunity to
learn skills and trades, visit cultural sites, meet renowned people and
spend their vacations at summer camp. The children are also provided
with vocational training and assisted to find a job.
VivaCell-MTS supports Orran also by donations during the annual charity
dinners. Today the organization hosted its 7th dinner during which
VivaCell-MTS donated AMD 90 million as well as an apartment for a
needy family, company's press service reported.
