The Hayastan All-Armenian Fund’s 2019 Telethon has raised 9,856.100 dollars, Armenpress reports.

Donations were made both from Armenia, Artsakh and different countries of the world.

The 22nd Telethon of the Fund was held under the slogan “To my beloved Armenia: Water and Sun for Communities”.

The Telethon lasted 12 hours: the first 4 hours were held in Yerevan, and the remaining 8 hours were broadcast from Los Angeles. The funds raised will be used for implementing drinking water supply and solar energy projects in Artsakh and in three provinces of Armenia – Lori, Shirak, and Tavush. Overall, more than 100 communities will become program beneficiaries and will be provided with daily water supply, free heating, and energy.

The mission of the Hayastan All-Armenian Fund is to form a pan-Armenian network system aimed at ensuring the proportionate, stable and inter-related development of the communities of Armenia, Artsakh, and the Diaspora, based on the common identity.

Last year the Telethon raised 11,109.633 dollars.
