SPONSORSHIP NEEDED FOR LILIT SHAKHKYAN AT MARI IZMIRLYAN ORPHANAGE
Mari Izmirlyan Orphanage is a state orphanage in Yerevan housing
approximately 100 children with special needs between the ages of
6 and 18. The Sponsorship Program is the primary mechanism through
which SOAR provides support to specific orphaned Armenian children.
Each week we highlight an orphaned Armenian child. This week, we
highlight Lilit Shakhkyan at Mari Izmirlyan Orphanage.
Name: Lilit Shakhkyan
Orphanage: Mari Izmirlyan Orphanage
Gender: Female
DOB: March 6, 2004
Father's Name/Occupation: Aram Shakhkyan/Unknown
Mother's Name/Occupation: Shushanik Kavalyan/Unknown

Health:
Lilit has a serious hearing disability. In 2011, SOAR contributed
to the costs of ear surgery for Lilit in which a Baha device was
implanted in her ear. Lilit currently attends a special school for
the hearing impaired.
Special interests, talents, hobbies, and future aspirations:
Lilit likes to be in the focus of attention. She likes to participate
in individual trainings, to play with constructive games, play
with dolls, and play with bright-colored toys. She does not like to
communicate with peers. She can compare objects and find similarities
and differences. Mostly she communicates with facial expressions
and behavior. Her future aspirations are to develop social skills,
to use voice for communication, and to pronounce sounds.
If you would like to sponsor Lilit, please contact George S.
Yacoubian, Jr., [email protected] or enroll through the
Sponsorship Program by selecting Lilit from Mari Izmirlyan.
