Following the forced displacement of over 100,000 people from Artsakh in September 2023 , we launched a crowdfunding campaign for an emergency response . From October to December 2023 , we raised over $ 100,000 through crowdfunding , corporate partnerships , and anonymous donors . Momed Mediterranean Restaurant in Los Angeles and Henry ’ s House of Coffee in San Francisco both contributed to our emergency response efforts . For Giving Tuesday , we organized a charity run with Arm Marathon , attracting 200 participants for a 5-kilometer race in Yerevan and 17 runners globally .
GLOBAL ADVOCATES NETWORK
In 2023 , we continued recruiting Global Advocates , volunteers who support Teach For Armenia from their communities anywhere in the world . Buddies Across Borders , a group of high school students from California , joined the network in 2023 , and starting in February , held weekly remote English language conversation sessions with students from the Choratan Secondary School in the Tavush region . In October , Buddies Across Borders expanded their work to a second school – the Lorut Secondary School in the Lori region .
NATION-BUILDERS PROGRAM
2023 marked the third year of our Nation-Builders School Sponsorship Program . Nation-Builders is an opportunity for individuals and organizations anywhere in the world to sponsor a Teach For Armenia school community . Nation-Builders donate $ 10,000 to ensure that their school has a Teach For Armenia Teacher-Leader for two academic years .. As of September 2023 , 15 Nation-Builders are sponsoring 18 rural schools .
