TELETHON KICKS OFF IN ARMENIA'S GIUMRY TO RAISE FUNDS FOR CREATIVE TECHNOLOGIES CENTER
YEREVAN, October 7. /ARKA/. A telethon on revitalizing the 1988
earthquake zone started on Armenian Shant TV on Tuesday.
The aim is fundraising for a new creative technologies center,
'TUMO', in the city of Giumry.
Today 'TUMO' helps many kids and teenagers in Yerevan to obtain good
education and get an employment in leading companies.
A similar opportunity should be provided to children living in Giumry,
says the report.
This idea is backed by the president Serzh Sargsyan. The head of the
Union of Russian Armenians Ara Abrahamyan was among the first to
answer the call. Abrahamyan made a contribution himself and urged
Armenians all over the world to help kids of Giumry to build their
future in their homeland.
Shant TV will broadcast the telethon across the globe from 9 o'clock
Tuesday October 7 till midnight.
"Dear friends! The contribution of each of us to this charity project
will be very important for the future of Giumry and the homeland as a
whole. We are convinced if we had this opportunity twenty years ago,
the current generation would have had better social condition and
promising future", says the report. -0--
