Orange Foundation and Shen NGO are continuing to implement charity projects directed to the development of remote rural communities of Armenia. The key beneficiaries of these projects are children – their education, health, pre-school and physical preparation.
From now on the renovated kindergarten of Lusakunk village in Gegharkunik region will host its 30 pupils in a beautifully furnished building. Lusakunk village has 1289 residents and this kindergarten plays a vital role in the organization of the everyday life of the local people. It enables not only to provide children with pre-school education and get integrated into society from early years, but also provides working places for the women of the village.

“Children have always been in the center of attention of the Orange Foundation. We highly prioritize the issues related to children, their education and cultural development in the life of the country, as future achievements of each country depend on the attention we show towards our children today.
