Beneficiary Story - Yeghisabet and Karen D.

Yeghisabet and Karen D. live in the suburb of Akhalkalak, their house perched on the edge of a gorge. They live with their mother, who struggles to provide for her family. Yeghisabet, known as “Ani” at home, is 13 years old and in the 7th grade. Karen, 12, is in the 6th grade. Karen’s hobby is sculpting with plaster and for two years he attended the local school of fine art, where his work was shown in many local exhibitions. Ani loves working with handicrafts, particularly embroidery, at the local youth center. Many of her works have also been shown in the center’s exhibitions. She also loves playing the piano. Both children are excellent students who are currently preparing for their annual exams.


They were some of the latest recipients of the Children of Armenia Sponsorship Program (CASP) stipend during the recent CASP distribution in Javakhk, Georgia. This support will help Ani, Karen, and their mother to purchase the necessities they need. CASP will ultimately enable Ani and Karen to continue to stay in school and cultivate their creativity.
