Our Partners

Our Partnerships: Built on Shared Belief

When we started the Arev Society, we knew one thing for sure: the work ahead of us was too big for any one organization to tackle alone. Fighting social and economic inequality isn't a solo mission. It requires people who share your values, understand the challenges, and are willing to show up consistently for vulnerable communities.

Since 2020, the Armenian Fund for Sustainable Development (AF4SD) has been more than a partner. They've been our eyes, ears, and hands on the ground in Armenia. We also remember that when we first issued the call for support to help war-affected families, the Fisher Family, through Schwab Charitable, was among the first to respond.

Working shoulder-to-shoulder with our partners, we've accomplished something we're genuinely proud of: between 2022 and 2025, we've provided management support to the AF4SD to design, launch, and mentor over 100 income-generating activities.

In the face of challenges, we've learned that empowerment today means more than just traditional skills. That's why our programs now include comprehensive "Digital literacy" training and education on AI tools. We've seen women who once felt intimidated by smartphones transform into confident online entrepreneurs, leveraging technology to grow their businesses and connect with new markets.

Arev Society and AGBU Armenia: A New Partnership for Women's Empowerment

Arev Society and AGBU Armenia partnership - Memorandum of Understanding signing February 2026

In February 2026, Arev Society signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Armenian General Benevolent Union Fund in Armenia, a milestone that marks a new chapter in our work. Formalized on February 13, 2026, this partnership brings together two organizations united by the same conviction: vulnerable women in Armenia deserve real, lasting opportunity.

Through this collaboration, AGBU Armenia's Women Entrepreneurs program and Arev Society's Vulnerable Women's Empowerment program are joining forces. AGBU WE has a strong track record of helping women micro-business owners grow and sustain their ventures through training, mentorship, and mini-grants.

Arev Society brings focused expertise in reaching war-affected families and Artsakh refugee women through vocational training, digital literacy, and economic empowerment. Together, the two organizations are better positioned to reach more women across more regions of Armenia, and to create pathways to financial independence for those who need it most.

This is what strategic partnership looks like in practice: aligning complementary strengths around a shared mission.

Our Volunteer Network

Arev Society is also deeply grateful for the dedicated volunteers across the United States and around the world who have become our champions and connectors. These volunteers help us find new supporters, share our story in their communities, and use their networks to expand our reach. They understand that building sustainable change requires building a community of people who believe in the same values. Their work is quiet, consistent, and genuinely indispensable.

What Partnership Means to Us

Every partnership Arev Society builds rests on a simple belief: behind every statistic is a real person deserving of opportunity, respect, and hope for a better tomorrow. We don't take lightly the trust that partners, donors, and beneficiaries place in us. We're grateful for every collaboration that has helped us grow, and we remain open to any form of support or cooperation that can make life better for vulnerable women and families across Armenia.

If your organization shares these values, we'd love to hear from you.
