Dear Friends,

If you've been following Armenian news, you're probably aware of the tension on the border this week.

In clear violation of the ceasefire, Azerbaijan launched an attack on an Artsakh military base. Nineteen of our soldiers were wounded and two were killed.

The timing of our next Ayo! project was not planned to coincide with this tragedy. But clearly, the necessity for it is more obvious than ever; we never know when border tensions will escalate.

Through #SafeShelter, we will support the kindergarten of Nerkin Khndzoresk, a village just 600 meters from the border. Will you partner with us to transform its old cellar into a well-equipped bunker?

That way, little children will have a safe place to hide in the case of violence.

Thank you for standing with our border villages at this critical time.

Stronger together,

Laura & the Ayo! team
