    Artsakh Relief

    Our fight for hope

    In response to the humanitarian crisis in Artsakh, AGBU swiftly mobilized to support displaced Armenians partnering with international organizations like World Central Kitchen for emergency relief efforts serving tens of thousands of individuals. In addition, healthcare and psychological support were also prioritized, with services offered through the AGBU Claudia Nazarian Medical Center and Camp Nairi, an ongoing family-focused program for children from Artsakh and Armenia who suffered loss since 2020. AGBU also reasserted a commitment to the long-term resettlement and integration of Artsakh Armenians in Armenia through education support and vocational training leading to potential employment opportunities with a restructuring of our Learn to Earn Artsakh Program (LEAP). Learn more about the crisis.

    Our work in Artsakh and for those who are still displaced in Armenia continues with distribution of goods and ongoing assistance programs. Please consider a contribution to our Global Relief Fund at this time.

    Care and support for youth

    After the 2020 war, thousands of children experienced deep trauma. AGBU responded by launching Camp Nairi, a free camp for children ages 7-13. So far, 1,200 children attended the camp. In 2024, AGBU introduced weekend retreats offering mental health support, benefiting 1,713 children and mothers.

    AGBU LEAP (Learn to Earn Artsakh Program)

    AGBU LEAP (Learn to Earn Artsakh Program) AGBU LEAP is a dynamic professional development initiative dedicated to providing displaced Artsakh refugees with professional consultancy, guidance, reskilling, and upskilling opportunities.
