Dear Sponsor,
This is David, born in Stepanakert. I am 12 years old. Our family used to live in Shushi. I was going to music school’s dhol and Youth Center’s embroidery classes. After losing my father and Shushi in the 44-Day War, we moved to Stepanakert. I continued my education there in Khachatour Abovian school.
I love to fish, I like plants, and I enjoy riding my bicycle. After surrendering Artsakh completely, my mother, sister, and I moved to Mother Armenia and we now live in the city of Martuni, in Gegharkunik region. I just got promoted to 7th grade.
