DigiFence, a cybersecurity technology and IT support company, is generously sponsoring our robotics team to compete in the First Global international robotics competition in Athens. Our special thanks to the Co-Founder and CEO Artur Martirosyan.

We are grateful to Pink Berry and its founding CEO Ani Ghazaryan, who generously provided ice cream for the graduation. Long queues did not deter anyone from enjoying the most delicious and beautifully presented ice cream. Thank you, Pink Berry.

UWCD Founding Patrons Noubar and Anna Afeyan, through the Afeyan Initiatives For Armenia Foundation, are providing funding for scholarships for students from Nagorno-Karabakh and are subsidising the costs of the JDI summer camp for children from Nagorno-Karabakh. In total 22 children will benefit from their generous gift.

UWC Dilijan and particularly the TedxYouth team are very grateful to Losh Restaurant, which has made a generous in-kind donation for the upcoming TedxYouth event on 6 April. Thank you to Losh and its founder Varda Avetisyan. 

The Star for Life Foundation, which has been supporting scholarships for South African students since 2014, made a commitment for a UWCD scholarship for a student from Namibia, along with a scholarship for a student from South Africa.

Partners at DeepWhite established the DeepWhite Scholarship for a student from Artsakh. UWC Dilijan is honoured to partner with DeepWhite to provide young people with educational opportunities - the best gift anyone can give.

We are very grateful to Mr. Gevork Gaboyan who has been supporting UWC Dilijan and its Armenian students for many years now. Of Armenian origin, Mr. Gaboyan is the founder of a prominent chain of pharmacies based in Russia. We appreciate his commitment to providing educational opportunities for Armenian youth in our school, including students from Artsakh and the Armenian Diaspora.

Last week we had a visit from Levon and Ana Afeyan, who in 2014 kindly provided the school with an in-kind contribution of chairs made by their company Seatply Products. They were glad to see that the chairs are still in good condition.

Nieves Mantecon is one of the alumni parents who made significant contributions to UWCD. Nieves’s daughter Lucia is a graduate of 2016, our first, and very special, class. Acknowledging the quality of Lucia’s education and eager to ensure that other students have a chance, Nieves made several donations towards the student hardship fund. We are deeply grateful to Nieves for singling out UWCD as a worthy cause to support.
