Women’s Rights Center was also participating in the Bazaar. One of WRC activities also includes formation of Children’s Folk Group partly composed of children of WRC beneficiaries. The formation of the Group became possible thanks to the financial support of the Embassy of the United States in Armenia. Fourteen girls and boys, dressed in national dresses, presented Armenian national folk dances during the event. They were very beautiful and everybody was impressed with their appearance and enjoyed their dances.
By the financial assistance of Yerevan International Ladies’ Association, WRC managed to order clothes and shoes for the national dances. We express our deep gratitude for their very praiseworthy assistance to improve children’s self-esteem and develop positive world outlook.
