PROJECT ONE DESCRIPTION:

Numerous Alpha Epsilon Omega brothers traveled to Armenia from June to July 2006 for three weeks. During this time, they gave a helping hand to Kindergarten #7 located in the city of Armavir. The brothers provided all kinds of essential supplies, which were made possible with Alpha Epsilon Omega Foundation raisers. Alpha Epsilon Omega brothers wanted to do everything possible to make the educational process more delightful for the Kindergarten students. Supplies included: desks/tables, chairs, beds, bed sheets, towels, toys, piano, electric oven, writing material, kitchen glassware, etc. They also gave thirty graduating Kindergarten students new backpacks filled with school supplies and toys. All the supplies will help students be more productive, help the instructors provide better education, and help the youth grow up in a better environment.

Furthermore, the Armenian Educational Relief Foundation created a contract with the Kindergarten director, the city auditor, and an Alpha Epsilon Omega representative. The contract acknowledged the quantity of supplies that were/was donated and the cost. The contract will also guarantee the city auditor that the supplies are not misplaced or misused.
