Usually, we aim to fund sustainable projects that provide long-term solutions to big needs. This holiday season, we switched things up a bit. We gathered a list of wishes from people all over Armenia — projects with small budgets that spread a lot of joy. They included everything from delivering Christmas gifts to vulnerable children to throwing a New Year’s party for lonely elderly folks to purchasing necessary home items for displaced families from Artsakh.

Between Thanksgiving Day and Armenian Christmas, we presented the wishes one at a time. In six weeks, you blew us away by donating over $21,000 to make 15 dreams come true! Three of those were bonus wishes we were able to fund thanks to your generosity — you overfunded the project and helped us exceed our goal. We got to spread lots of joy, which made our Christmas more special. None of that would have been possible without you.

Thank you!
