🛟 Spendenaufruf für die Menschen aus Arzach-Bergkarabach 🇩🇪🇦🇲 Mehr als 100.000 Menschen aus Arzach haben aufgrund der Diktatur Aserbaidschan ihre Existenz verloren und sind nach Armenien geflüchtet. Sie benötigen jetzt sofort Hilfe: Verpflegung, Behausung sowie berufliche und schulische Eingliederung. Wir von AGBU Germany e.V. fühlen uns dazu verpflichtet, diesen Menschen den Neustart in ein sicheres und gesundes Leben zu ermöglichen. Unsere 117 Jahre alte Mutterorganisation AGBU leistet in Armenien lebensnotwendige humanitäre Hilfe und arbeitet u.a. mit World Central Kitchen zusammen, die aktuell vor Ort die aus Arzach vertriebene Menschen mit mehreren Mahlzeiten am Tag verpflegen. In den ersten Tagen wurden mehr als 15.000 Mahlzeiten verteilt. Zudem wird AGBU auch die medizinische Versorgung der Menschen in der AGBU Polyclinic in Jerewan kostenfrei ermöglichen.

One of the keys to TUMO’s success is having strong, reliable partners. First up, a big thank you to our longtime friend, AGBU! What started with their support for not one but two TUMO Centers has grown into a nearly decade-long partnership that’s played a vital role in our expansion across Armenia. Thanks to them, we've been able to open more and more TUMOs, giving thousands of teens the space to think big and create even bigger. Our TUMO Armenia campaign wouldn’t be what it is today without their incredible backing. To celebrate this special partnership, we’re taking a trip down memory lane—back to where it all began—from the first phase of TUMO Gyumri at the Gyumri Technology Center and our Center in Stepanakert, all the way to TUMO Armenia. Let’s keep the momentum going! Donate now to the TUMO Armenia campaign at armenia.tumo.org
