BERKELEY, Calif.—The Paros Foundation’s SERVICE-Armenia Program, which enables young people to travel through and engage in meaningful projects in Armenia and Artsakh (Karabagh), will run from June 23 to July 24.
SERVICE Armenia 2014 participants and Paros Foundation staff
“I am looking forward to another successful program this summer,” said Peter Abajian, executive director of the Paros Foundation. “Our group last summer worked on the elementary school wing at the Hatsik village school and also helped distribute 50,000 pairs of shoes in rural villages in Armenia. This summer, our group will work on similar meaningful service projects.”
Throughout the program, participants will tour historic, religious, and cultural sites throughout Armenia and Artsakh with experienced English-speaking staff and guides. The program is open to both Armenian and American youth wishing to participate in this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Knowledge of the Armenian language is not required. Join us and create a lifetime of great memories and friends.
“This was my first trip to Armenia and I had an amazing time. I would definitely recommend SERVICE-Armenia for anyone who wants to see Armenia and get involved,” said Narine Panosian, a 2013 participant.
The deadline to submit the completed application is April 1, 2014. For more information, including photos, and video, and an application form, visit www.parosfoundation.org/servicearmenia2014 or contact Peter Abajian by calling (310) 400-9061 or e-mailing peter@paros-foundation.org.
