    SERVE, TOUR AND PLAY: SERVICE - Armenia 2013 Last Chance to Register!


    BERKELEY, CA-Applications are now available for The Paros Foundation's
    SERVICE Armenia 2013 Program. The program will run from June 24 to
    July 23, 2013 and will facilitate young people to travel and tour
    Armenia and Artsakh, while engaging in meaningful service projects
    benefiting Armenia and her people.

    "Following the successes we experienced in 2012 with both groups of
    Armenian and American young people working on service projects in both
    Yerevan and in the regions, we look forward to summer 2013.
    Participants will be working on renovating school classrooms and
    distributing shoes and other humanitarian aid." Said Peter Abajian,
    Executive Director of The Paros Foundation.

    Throughout the program, participants will tour historic, religious and
    cultural sites throughout Armenia and Artsakh with experienced,
    English speaking staff and guides. Safe and well located
    accommodations and transportation combined with interesting cultural
    and educational activities will ensure all will have a terrific and
    memorable experience. The program is open to both Armenian and
    American young people wishing to participate in this once in a
    lifetime opportunity. Knowledge of the Armenian language is not
    required. Join us and create a lifetime of great memories and
    friends.

    physical resources to their respective causes.

    Armenia and her people. 100 pre-screened, projects in the areas of
    development, education, cultural and humanitarian will be implemented
    with your help, to help make Armenia stronger and improve the lives of
    her people. Join us now and make your families' commitment today.
