Sometimes the biggest changes begin with a single decision.

When Henrik came to Armenia, he expected to stay for just a short visit. Instead, volunteering through AVC opened the door to a new life one that led him to work for the Armenian government, write about Armenia for Spain's largest newspaper, and discover a sense of purpose he hadn't been able to find before.

It was a true pleasure to welcome H.E. Ms. Marieke Monroy-Winter, Ambassador of the Kingdom of the Netherlands to Armenia, to AVC today.

We loved sharing the AVC story and exchanging ideas about the power of volunteerism, cultural exchange, and international cooperation. Thank you, Ambassador, for such a thoughtful conversation and for taking the time to connect with our community your insights and warmth made the visit truly memorable.

A wonderful highlight: our very own ProCorps volunteer Levon Kalaydjian who lends his PR talents to a number of organizations, lucky us among them shared some of his own experiences and milestones.

We look forward to continuing to build bridges between people, cultures, and countries and to giving them the power to move mountains! 🏔️

AVC’s 25th Anniversary Dinner brought together alumni and volunteers from different years creating a unique opportunity to reconnect, exchange perspectives, and reflect on the impact we’ve created over the years in Armenia.

The anniversary dinner was more than a celebration, it was a gathering of the people who have shaped AVC over the years and continue to be part of its story.

Thank you to everyone who joined us to celebrate this milestone and the people behind it. Here’s to strengthening our community and moving mountains together for many years to come.
