Vazashen residents have a pleasant and comfortable place where they can meet, organize concerts, sport or cultural activities as well as hold important events in their lives. A community center opened in Vazashen village, Tavush region. Furniture, sport equipments and library have been acquired with the support of the Orange Foundation and “Shen” charitable non-governmental organization.
Bruno Duthoit, Chairman of the Orange Armenia Foundation board, said: « In the normal social life of each small or large village the community center has a vital importance. So now Vazashen inhabitants will have a comfortable place where they can get together to exchange ideas or for leisure, and where children can go in for sports or dances. We understand very well the importance this place has for Vazashen, which is at only several hundreds of meters from the border.”
