HELPING BUILD A HOME WITH FULLER CENTER FOR HOUSING ARMENIA

 

YEREVAN, ARMENIA:  On the Armenia Marriott Hotel
Yerevan volunteer staff members, led by Armenia Marriott Hotel Yerevan General
Manager Catalina Susan, joined Fuller Center for Housing Armenia team
to build a home for the Khachatryan family from Qaghsi Village in the
Kotayk Region.

 

It is already the 12th
year that Armenia Marriott Hotel Yerevan partners with Fuller Center for
Housing Armenia team with the aim of eliminating substandard housing in Armenia
and helping more and more families in need of decent housing. This year, the
Armenia Marriott Hotel Yerevan team joined the Khachatryans to help with
concreting work.

“Marriott’s Spirit to serve makes our culture more
vibrant, our business stronger and the world a better place. Investing in the
communities where we do business is at the core of Marriott’s Spirit To Serve
Our Communities corporate social responsibility strategy. Our commitment to
society blends financial contributions with in-kind giving of products and
services, and the volunteer service of our associates around the world. Now the
time has come to put our actions to another Spirit to Serve our communities
event together with Fuller Center for Housing Armenia‘’, said Armenia Marriott
Hotel Yerevan General Manager
 Ms. Catalina Susan

The
Khachatryans are a family of eleven. Rustam and his wife, Hripsik, together
with their three children, live with Rustam’s parents and his brother’s family,
eleven people in a four-room house. It is already nine years, Rustam has
started building a house for his family, but could raise only the walls and do
the ceiling.

 Rustam still can’t imagine that very soon his
family will have a decent home and his children will be raised in a house with
all necessary housing conditions. 

''For many years I
have been trying to finish the house construction putting stone on the stone
but lack of financial mean didn’t allow to finish the construction sooner. I am
so thankful to FCHA and the volunteers who came and worked tirelessly with us.
Their support is invaluable. My entire family is very grateful for such a
generous support,” shared Rustam.

 “We have a solid partnership with
Armenia Marriott Hotel Yerevan which has a history of 12 years… Hope our
partnership will continue many more years with the great mission of helping
more and more Armenian families in housing need,'' said the Fuller Center for
Housing Armenia President Ashot Yeghiazaryan.
