The 8-year-old daughter of a family living in extreme poverty has
never gone to school, and the newborn child doesn't have a birth
certificate. The family, living in one of the temporary housing
settlements in Armenia's second-largest city, Gyumri, is comprised of
three daughters, two of whom are single moms. The women in the video
say they don't receive social benefits, and they didn't get a birth
certificate for the two-month-old baby because they couldn't afford it.
The video was prepared by Shirak Centre [AM], a NGO that solicits
donations and then buys food, clothing, and other supplies for needy
families in Gyumri.
Video in Armenian only.
