PRE-PROJECT REMARKS:
This is one of our annual projects, where we deliver school supplies to underprivileged children in villages in rural areas of Armenia. We started this project in 2014, with only 50 school supplies, and this was the case until 2019, where we expanded the project to 200 children. This year, we are taking another step further and going to deliver school supplies to 335 children, from rural underprivileged families of Armenia.
As per our procedure, we usually puts the photos of the actual supplies to be donated up on the website. However, for this year’s project the supplies were purchased form U.S.A., and not Canada, and they were directly shipped to Armenia. They are currently sealed in boxes, in the possession of one of our director’s, Arkadi Grigoryan so we won’t be able to post the actual photos of the supplies until the project commences in Armenia, in Spring of 2023 (due to COVID-19 travel restrictions), when Empower Armenia would resume its on -ground projects in Armenia. A detailed list consisting name and location of each school, along with quantities of supplies that will be donated to each school will be presented in the next few months on our website.

Please continue your support of our annual school supplies project, by visiting our ongoing projects tab. Since 2019, we have expanded to other educational projects, by supporting young Armenian high school graduates, who due to financial issues are unable to pursue a higher education, attend university. Please visit our ongoing projects for more details.
The donations are scheduled to be delivered in Spring of 2023. Please note, due to Covid-19 pandemic, Empower Armenia might push the project back to Summer of 2023.
