Voice of America Report on Jinishian Memorial Foundation |
|
The Jinishian Memorial Foundation (JMF) began work in Armenia in 1993 and became legally registered in Armenia as a local foundation in 1999.
The JMF is primarily sponsored by the Jinishian Memorial Program (JMP) of the Presbyterian Church USA. The Jinishian Memorial Program (JMP) is a charitable trust that was established on May 17, 1966 by the bequest of Vartan H. Jinishian in memory of his parents. Since 1966 the JMP has provided basic services and direct relief to millions of poor Armenians in Lebanon, Syria, Turkey, Iran, Iraq, South America, Jordan and Armenia, who have lived in the midst of conflict and instability.
After independence came in 1991, the JMP began to explore extending its relief and development activities to Armenia. Since then it has provided economic, social and spiritual assistance to millions of needy Armenians, and supported more than 200 grassroots and local NGOs through partnering and collaboration.

By Sona Hamalian
Among the key aspects that make the Jinishian Memorial Foundation unique is its profoundly compassionate approach to the design of its programs, and, ultimately, its beneficiaries. Rather than provide quick fixes or handouts, the organization invests in the lives of individuals and entire communities, guided by both an abiding sense of empathy and a vision of long-term development – in terms of fostering economic self-sufficiency, social equality and vibrancy, educational excellence, and spiritual growth.
Sponsored mainly by the Jinishian Memorial Program of the Presbyterian Church USA, the Jinishian Memorial Foundation operates a comprehensive program in Armenia, focusing not only on direct aid to disadvantaged families, but also community development, education, economic development, civil-society growth, health services, and spiritual uplift.

May 20, 2008
It is very gratifying to realize that one’s support for improving peoples’ lives is, in fact, doing that. It is even more gratifying to witness how one’s support serves as a catalyst for further improvements.
With funds provided by the American People through the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), the Primary Healthcare Reform Project (PHCR) helps improve quality and accessibility of primary care in Armenia. To increase effectiveness and efficiency in the use of funds, the Project not only coordinates activities with other donor organizations, but, where possible, also endeavors to leverage and mobilize outside resources.
