VivaCell-MTS General Manager Ralph Yirikian met young volunteers of
Birthright Armenia and encouraged their initiative to get closer to
their roots. Today VivaCell-MTS hosted a group of young Diaspora
Armenian volunteers from different countries aged between 20 and 32
years, who serve as volunteers for an average of 6 months each, and
are ready to apply their professional skills in the regions of our
country.
VivaCell-MTS General Manager Ralph Yirikian presented the volunteers
with key aspects of VivaCell-MTS' operation, the key values guiding
the Company, as well as its strategy in the sphere of corporate
responsibility and key areas of intervention. Ralph Yirikian also
presented the young people from the Diaspora with the Company's
activities aimed at increasing awareness on the genocide and its
recognition. In particular, the Company supported the initiatives of
the Armenian Genocide Museum-Institute in publication of several
important monographs by eye-witnesses of the genocide, acquisition of
books from different collections in Armenia and outside the country.
The Company's staff participated on voluntary basis in tree-planting
activities and cleaning on the territory of the monument.
VivaCell-MTS pays particular importance and attention to programs
aimed at inviting more young Armenians from the Diaspora to the
Homeland for engaging in volunteer activities and integrating with the
country's culture. VivaCell-MTS finds that the best way to learn about
Armenia is not just to consider Armenia as a touristic destination
where one can familiarize himself with numerous cultural and
historical sites but also as an opportunity to work in the
professional area or just contribute through volunteering in projects
aimed at improving areas of the society. Discovering Armenia means
getting to know it from inside by becoming a member of the society,
feeling the pulse of the country, enriching own personal experience
through communicating and getting in touch with the daily lives of
different people, and much more. It is also important to engage in
friendly relationships with peers and create personal connections with
potential for future professional and business relationships. "Your
decision to get to your roots is one of the greatest decisions of your
life. It is self-rewarding in that your embrace the essence of your
identity in the country of your ancestors, your grand grandfathers,"
VivaCell-MTS General Manager Ralph Yirikian said to young Armenians
from the United States, the Russian Federation, Syria, Mexico, Lebanon
and Canada.
VivaCell-MTS (K-Telecom CJSC) is Armenia's leading telecommunications
operator, having the widest 2G/3.75G/4G network reach and spreading a
wide range of Voice and Data services all across Armenia. Having the
best of the Armenian people interest at heart since its launch on 1st
July 2005 and in a short period of time VivaCell-MTS has managed to
build a nationwide network and a considerable customer base.
VivaCell-MTS drives innovation and aims at always being at the
forefront of any development serving the Armenian mobile
communications market. The company follows the guidance provided by
ISO 26000 (International Standard of Social Responsibility).
