Mission and programs · 2023

Mission

COAFs goal is to empower the younger generation of Armenians living in the country's impoverished and neglected rural villages.While COAF's work is all-encompassing, the emphasis is on education. The organizations work combines infrastructure projects schools, medical clinics, health posts, community centers, athletic facilities with world class educational, socioeconomic, health care, and community programs. The objective is to enable young Armenians to define and build their own future with guidance provided by COAF.

  • Since 2004, the Children of Armenia Fund (COAF) has improved living conditions in Armenias underserved rural areas, including educational and social advancements in 60+ communities across 6 regions, making a lasting impact on the lives of 107,000+ Armenians. 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.
