Artsakh Relief Fund Donations
The top priority of the ARS became the immediate humanitarian assistance to those affected by the Artsakh war which began on September 27, 2020. Parallel to the ongoing relief work, long term projects were discussed in depth, assistance of displaced families and families of the fallen and wounded soldiers.
Considering the current status of the displaced families as a result of the 45 day war followed by the November 9, 2020 tripartite agreement, and relying on the unconditional support of our entities, the CEB decided to launch the “Stand With an Artsakh Family” relief project. The goal of this project is to provide financial assistance to a minimum 1000 displaced families from Artsakh over the course of four months. The monthly cost to care for each family is $250USd (To help with Nourishment, clothing, bills, and rent)․ Donations can be made for one and/or up to four months of assistance. Regardless of amounts donated all smaller donations will be combined to meet the monthly needs.
UPDATE:
On December 17, the Armenian Relief Society, as a part of their “Stand with an Artsakh Family” initiative, assisted families in need. 49 displaced families who were currently residing in Masis and its surrounding communities were provided with $250 each for their first month’s payment. 23 families from Sis, 21 from Nizami, and 5 from Ghukasakan.
