Thank You for the Memories – AGBU Volunteers at Orran

Yesterday at Orran, we said goodbye to a truly inspiring group of volunteers.

Twenty-five volunteers from AGBU Manoogian-Demirdjian School in Los Angeles, together with their teachers, Anna Yaralian and Rozalin Madoyan, spent time with our children, leading English lessons, interactive learning sessions, and joyful outdoor activities. The yard came alive with volleyball games, laughter, and everyday moments that turned into something truly special.

One of the highlights of their volunteering journey was a summer barbecue and homemade lemonade in Orran’s backyard, creating a warm and joyful afternoon for everyone.

They also raised funds to donate tennis rackets, balls, and other sports equipment, giving our children more opportunities to play, learn, and grow.

Beyond lessons, the volunteers offered something even more meaningful—attention, care, and genuine human connection that children will carry with them.

At the end of the volunteering program, they received their certificates, shared heartfelt goodbyes, and concluded their time at Orran with hearts full of memories.

A heartfelt thank you to each volunteer for your time, kindness, and dedication. You didn’t just support our work—you became part of our children’s world.
