Revitalizing Armenia begins with strengthening education and broadening the opportunities of the nations children, ensuring a forward-thinking, globally competitive citizenry. This understanding propelled the creation of the COAF SMART initiative, a comprehensive and replicable educational model. In 2018, COAF inaugurated its flagship SMART Center in the Lori region. An innovative educational facility, the SMART Center offers 2,000+ rural children and youth from 28 communities access to essential educational resources and after-school programs. In 2021, we expanded our focus. Forming unprecedented institutional, private sector, and NGO partnerships, we took significant strides to further our programmatic work throughout Armenia. The opening of our Child and Family Services Center in Hatsik village marked a new era of our approach to rural health. We extended our network of SMART initiatives in the Lori region with new SMART Village infrastructure, designed to spur social and economic progress in 27 rural communities. During our "Home Is Calling" virtual gala, we garnered record-setting support to build SMART Centers across Armenia, starting with the Armavir Smart Center, which will begin construction in 2022. COAF supporters reached out from across the globe to offer their talents and resources to the rural Armenian community, ensuring continued advancement for Armenia's children during even these difficult times. As we look ahead, our commitment to Armenia remains steadfast and strengthened by that of our community. 7109573 true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false true true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false true false false false true 8 0 true 0 false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 14 14 true false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true true true AR CA FL GA IL KY MA MD MI MN MS NC NJ NY PA RI TN UT VA X X X GARO ARMEN 2129948234 149 5TH AVENUE - SUITE 500 NEW YORK NY 10010 X GARO H ARMEN PHD Chairman 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 DR ALICE SARAYDARIAN SECRETARY/TREAS 4.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 JOHN SARAYDARIAN Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 JACQUELINE VARTANIAN Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 NATASHA AVANESSIANS Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 KHALIL BARRAGE Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 GREGORY EKIZIAN Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 DEBBIE OHANIAN Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 MARY PENDERGAST Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 SHAKE NAHAPETIAN Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 VAHE NAHAPETIAN Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 VAHE DOMBALAGIAN Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 HASMIK DOMBALAGIAN Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 PETER BALANKIAN Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 DIRON JEBEJIAN AUD.
