    The June beneficiary of the initiative is ‘’Teach For Armenia’’ foundation, which ensures access to quality education for all children in Armenia, regardless of their place of residence. The ‘’one drams’’, collected within the framework of cooperation with the Foundation, will be directed to the implementation of the Teacher Leadership Program.

We are confident that quality education is the foundation of a strong and developed society. Similar programs play an irreplaceable role in revealing the potential of children living in the regions, as well as in the balanced development of communities,” said Tatevik Vardevanyan.
