YEREVAN, AUGUST 22, ARMENPRESS: A new human resources development
fund, called Pyunik, will be launched officially in Armenia soon. Its
honorary chairman is a Diaspora Armenian benefactor Gabriel Jambarji
and Levon Sarkisian is the chairman of the board of trustees.
Education and science minister Spartak Seyranian said to reporters
today that Jambarji and his friends have been supporting Armenian
education since 1998 by providing Armenian schools with 530 full labs
for Biology, Chemistry and Physics subjects, furnished with modern
equipment and devices and materials necessary for conducting tests.
Levon Sarkisian said the idea to shift to official activity is to
enlarge the number of sponsors. Part of labs were given to schools
outside Yerevan. Gabriel Jambarji and his fiends also provided Armenian
schools with 200 computers and 250 printers.
The minister said Jambarji gave his accord to show support also to
universities and high schools as well as to pre-school institutions. In
2007 in recognition of his services to Armenian education Gabriel
Jambarji was awarded the gold medal of the Armenian education and
science ministry.
