SOAR OCTOBER 2021 NEWSLETTER
OUR FALLEN SOLDIER FAMILIES
The 6-year-old daughter and 3-year-old son of fallen Armenian soldier, Gor Ajamyan, sang a song in remembrance of their father on his birthday.

Days that were celebratory are now days of heartache.

As the holidays approach, help us remember the families that have endured the supreme sacrifice and cannot celebrate with their husbands and fathers.
SIDE BY SIDE INCLUSIVE MUSIC & ARTS FESTIVAL
Children in the SOAR Music Therapy Program participated in the Side-by-Side Music and Arts Festival with renowned artists and musicians!
The festival took place at the Hovhannes Tumanyan Puppet Theatre of Yerevan.
