We promise: the warm sun of Armenia, the breath of our mountains, the warmth and hospitality of our family will warm every visitor of the charity fair. For several years in a row, the VIVA Foundation together with the Academy of Armenian Culture organizes a Christmas fair in Moscow with fun and informative master classes, a festive lottery, sale of Armenian products, goods, souvenirs and more.
This year you can expect:
- a master class on creating New Year's wreaths
- surprise lottery and drawing of magical prizes
- festive photo zone
- and, of course, the real Santa Claus!
The charity fair will also offer delicious Armenian (and not only!) products and drinks. Jams, pickles, Armenian coffee, dried fruits and (where without it!) excellent Armenian brandy. We will have special guests who will bake fresh gata and baklava. Don’t deprive yourself of the pleasure to decorate your New Year’s table with dishes from the Motherland.
And be sure to take your children to the fair with you. We have prepared an interesting entertainment programme for them. In addition, each child will be able to write a letter to Santa Claus and hand it to him personally!
And along with your children’s dreams, someone else’s will come true. As it was last year, and the year before that….
This year, all the funds raised will be directed to the VIVA Foundation’s programmes for IDPs from Artsakh. Let our warmth and support reach those who have had to leave their homes. Let’s end this another difficult year with good deeds, this will allow us all to look forward to the future with hope.
In 2022, the VIVA Foundation's charity fair raised 556,825 roubles. Thanks to this, the foundation was able to organise New Year performances and present gifts to 1,180 children in Artsakh.
The Foundation’s volunteers organised New Year performances in different districts of Artsakh, which was still under blockade at the time.
And in 2021, we didn’t just give gifts, we awarded young artists from Artsakh, participants of the “Tsavd Tanim Artsakh” art project.
That year we were able to raise 284,197 rubles at the VIVA Foundation's Christmas Charity Fair. We gave 288 gifts to children, bought medical supplies for two children and a washing machine for a refugee family from Hadrut and sweets.
This year too, we have someone to please, someone to give hope for recovery, support in a difficult moment and, of course, in a moment of joy and happiness. The proceeds from the fair will be directed to the implementation of 5 programmes of the VIVA Foundation for IDPs from Artsakh. People with diabetes, chronic and oncological diseases, palliative patients and young parents will receive also help!
Are you ready? Let’s warm each other with the warmth of our hearts. Make sure you come!
