FREEDOM LOVING YOUTH (FLY) FOUNDATION

VISION: A world where every child enjoys a carefree childhood free from suffering, with the FLY Center in Gyumri standing as a beacon that breaks the cycle of poverty and opens bright, hope-filled futures for the entire community.

MISSION: Empowering Lives, Igniting Hope — FLY transforms the lives of impoverished children and single mothers by providing immediate humanitarian aid, education, and skills-training that equip them to build self-sufficient, dignified futures.

THANK YOU for spreading warmth where the walls are still rising, yet the echoes of hope already fill the air. Your support brings every child a step closer to their biggest dreams, and your donations also empower single mothers and children from vulnerable groups by providing the care and education they deserve.

LET’S BUILD THE FLY AUDITORIUM

In partnership with ReArmenia/https://rearmenia.com/en/ , FLY has launched the construction of the AUDITORIUM at FLY ”Humanitarian and Educational Center” — a space where children and youth will learn, perform, and grow. Every dollar brings us one step closer to completing this meaningful project.

UNFORGETTABLE DAY WITH MARIA

As a devoted FLY Board Member, Maria Nagapetyan spent the day in Gyumri, Armenia with the mothers and children we serve, bringing gifts, joy, and deep compassion.

JUNE 1st | INTERNATIONAL CHILDREN’S DAY

June 1st turned into a magical celebration for children. Together with their mothers, our beneficiary children enjoyed a day filled with joy, creativity, and warmth. They played, laughed, tasted our homemade cookies, and returned home with small gifts and big smiles. At our information booth, many visitors learned more about FLY’s mission and our programs aimed at building a brighter future for every child.
