Report Summary

Spring in Tavush is breathtaking—fields full of

wildflowers, soft mountain air, and a sense of renewal.

And this year, those blossoms didn’t just bloom—they

became part of something lasting.

Since January, 24 young people with disabilities have joined our ABLE YOUTH workshops, learning hands-on skills in jewelry-making and woodworking. With care and creativity, they’ve turned wildflowers into resin pendants—glossy, hand-crafted pieces that hold the beauty of spring inside. They’ve also shaped wooden smartphone stands, each one a symbol of their growing skill and independence.

But what matters most is not just what they made:

IT’S HOW THEY CHANGED.

To reach more youth and continue this important work, we must raise

$8,000 this year. Your donation today will:

Welcome more participants into the program,
Provide essential tools and materials,
Connect these young creators to markets and buyers.

Please donate today. Every gift opens a door.
