FAR YOUTH GROUP IN HOMELAND

The Fund for Armenian Relief has organized the 9th visit already of young
American-Armenian specialist to Armenia. Members of the group are form
different US states, mostly eastern. They did not know each other before
traveling to their motherland and united in a group to come and see the land
of their ancestors.

This travel is far from being an ordinary one. As the director of the FAR
projects and head of the group Arto Vorberian said, besides going
sightseeing, the American-Armenian young people will take a closer look to
the projects of the beneficial projects of the organization and will specify
their place among the donors and friends of FAR. There were numerous cases
when our young compatriots engaged in practical patriotism when back home
again. The Organization of Young Specialists within the FAR that was created
2 years ago occasionally holds meetings and draws up projects.

The group members have already visited museums and concert halls of Yerevan
as well as traveled to Byurakan and Oshakan. They visited the
Armenian-Turkish border yesterday to look at the ruins of Ani. Next week the
group will be in Nagorno Karabakh to get acquainted with the humanitarian
projects of FAR.

For one, Teacher Molly Hashian coming from Philadelphia is impressed to see
changes in Yerevan. Edina Kobelian says that Mount Ararat presents them with
wonderful moments of spiritual satisfaction.
