Merry Armenian Christmas from the All For Armenia team and our friends at the border village of Kornidzor! Yesterday, we completed our third annual gift delivery mission for the village children. Santa Claus landed in Kornidzor to lead the children in song, dance, and poetry before they received the presents we were able to purchase through the generosity of our community. The children warmed our hearts with their cheery smiles and squeals of enthusiasm.

Following the gift distribution, the AFA team gathered for a khorovatz (barbecue) dinner at KorniTun with friends from the village who have been instrumental in helping us implement our projects in the border community. Over 10 volunteers participated in the day’s activities, and several spent the night at KorniTun, demonstrating the crucial role i tplays in fostering bonds with the community and enabling our volunteers to be present on the ground.

Thank you to Abaven Foundation for generously matching donations for festive Christmas baskets, which will be delivered in the coming days to local families, as well as those forcibly displaced from Artsakh, who have been identified as high needs.
