Hayastan All-Armenian Fund continues to provide vital assistance to
the Syrian-Armenian community, which has suffered considerable losses
since the start of the Syrian civil war.
The fund launched its aid program for Syrian-Armenians in August 2012,
by establishing special bank accounts through which donors worldwide
can make contributions in support of the struggling community. The
accounts were opened on the recommendation of Armenian president Serzh
Sargsyan, who also serves as the president of the Hayastan
All-Armenian Fund Board of Trustees.
To date, with donations made through these bank accounts, the fund has
underwritten the Aleppo-Yerevan-Aleppo air travels of Syrian-Armenians
who seek refuge in Armenia, and carried out much needed medical and
educational projects. Through the latter two types of initiatives,
which were proposed by Armenia's Ministry of Diaspora, the fund has
sponsored emergency surgeries for two Syrian-Armenians, and continues
to cover the annual tuitions of 69 Syrian-Armenian students who
currently attend various colleges and universities in the homeland.
The following is the list of these institutions and their respective
numbers of Syrian-Armenian students with scholarships from the
Hayastan All-Armenian Fund:
State Engineering University of Armenia - 11 students
Yerevan State University - 16 students
Mkhitar Heratsi Yerevan State Medical University - nine students

Yerevan State University of Architecture and Construction - 13 students
