ARMENIA TREE PROJECT

A N N U A L R E P O R T 2 0 2 0 DIRECTOR'S STATEMENT

Dear Friends,

I am pleased to share ATP’s Annual Report for 2020. We began 2020 with robust energy following our 25th anniversary celebrations in 2019. Our team in Armenia prepared for a successful spring planting ahead, while our team in the U.S. continued educational visits to schools, churches, and community centers.

In March, COVID-19 paused the world. Though the global pandemic presented many challenges, even affecting some of our own staff members, our team saw the beauty behind the madness. We rejoiced in seeing videos of dolphins swimming in the Venice canals, in seeing pictures of cities in Asia free of pollution, and many other sights that showed us just how much Mother Nature needed to heal.

Then, our homeland and people needed to heal following the tragic war in Artsakh. Our office quickly turned into a supply drop-off location, some of our staff members served in the Army, and our team helped fundraise during the war. We were heartbroken by the enemy’s use of white phosphorus on Artsakh’s ancient forests. In the coming months we will explore the extent of the damage and determine how ATP can assist with restoration.

We are proud to tell you that despite these challenges, we retained all of our 70 full-time employees, hired more than 150 seasonal workers, and managed to plant a record number of seedlings - more than ATP has planted in any prior year!

ATP continues to secure the same vision our founder, Carolyn Mugar, established in 1994: a greener Armenia, as well as providing economic opportunities for our homeland's citizens. It has always been our priority to assist those with the fewest resources by providing socioeconomic growth through reforestation initiatives.

Our team - which includes you, our supporters - remains strong and unbroken in spirit. Our mission to use trees to improve Armenia’s standard of living continues. We are thankful for your continued support and belief in our mission, and look forward to a successful year ahead.

J E A N M A R I E P A P E L I A N Executive Director 6,519,001 TREES PLANTED SINCE 1994

Thank you for continuing to support our mission, and enabling us to continue greening Armenia and Artsakh.

ATP planted 399, 001 trees in 2020: more trees than any other year! YOUR IMPACT

COMMUNITY TREE SURVIVAL RATES OVER THE YEARS

1994-1998

FROM 1994 TO 2020, A TOTAL OF 1,327,160 TREES 1999-2003 WERE PLANTED AT COMMUNITY SITES ACROSS ARMENIA AND 2004-2008 ARTSAKH. FROM THESE TREES, 941,718 SURVIVED, BRINGING THE TOTAL 2009-2013 SURVIVAL RATE TO 71% OVER 26 YEARS.

2013-2020

0% 25% 50% 75% 100%

IN ADDITION TO PLANTINGS, ATP WORKS TO ENSURE A HIGH SURVIVAL RATE OF THEIR TREES, WHICH REQUIRES AN UNDERSTANDING OF THE LAND, THE OPPORTUNITIES PRESENTED BY NEW TECHNOLOGIES, AND THE CHALLENGES PRESENTED BY CLIMATE CHANGE.

Spring Planting

The Forestry Department planted 3 times more trees than usual in spring 2020! A total of 102,206 seedlings were planted at 2 new sites in the Lori region: Aznvadzor (42 hectares) & Privolnoye (30 hectares)

Due to the pandemic, many villagers could not leave for seasonal work abroad. ATP hired 110 seasonal representatives of rural communities to work on spring plantings.

A total of 361,910 seedlings were planted by the ATP Forestry Program in 2020

Fall Plantings

With the pandemic and war in Artsakh, the fall planting season presented several difficulties; however, our team pulled through and planted more trees than in any previous year.

We worked in four planting areas- Urut, Bovadzor, Privolnoye, and Aznvadzor, where a total of 259, 704 seedlings were planted. This was a record-breaking number for ATP!

Another first in ATP's history was the use of container plants during all our plantings. We expect that these trees will have very high survival rates. COMMUNITY TREE PLANTINGS

Aleksandr (Sasha) Mirzoyan works as a monitor for ATP’s community tree planting program. He is responsible for organizing, overseeing and monitoring plantings in the provinces of Aragatsotn, Armavir, Shirak, Tavush, Syunik and Vayots Dzor. He has been working for ATP since 2015 and has a background in psychology, sociology, pedagogy and finances.

WE OFTEN HEAR THAT A CTP MONITOR MUST BE A GOOD PSYCHOLOGIST TO BE SUCCESSFUL. BASED ON YOUR EXPERIENCE, WHAT PSYCHOLOGICAL EFFECT DOES PLANTING TREES HAVE ON PEOPLE?

I think the birth of any new life changes something in humans. Trees change people in a similar way that babies do. Once a seedling takes root, you begin to love it like you would your own child. You start to look after it, giving it your time and attention. We all get excited whenever someone is born, because it motivates us to think about the future, to work and to create. CAN YOU DESCRIBE YOUR WORK? WHEN ARE PLANTINGS MOST

I want to start off by saying that It’s a really SUCCESSFUL? great job. We help people and communities In my opinion a lot of it depends on the all over the country.

Older sites are visited less often since farmers and villagers can really benefit the trees there are already out of that critical from those trees.

Our partners in the communities tend to change from time to time (school principal, community leader etc.), so we make sure to go back and establish new connections and re-introduce the program. HOW WAS 2020 DIFFERENT FOR WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE CTP SITE THE CTP PROGRAM? AND WHY?

I can’t recall a worse year. Somehow we My favorite isn’t a CTP site yet, but I’m managed to get some plantings done planning on turning it into one.

One thing is for sure, all of this is going to have a negative impact on the economy, so it’s nice to know that the harvest from even a single one of our trees helps people. IN YOUR OPINION, WHAT IS THE IMPORTANCE OF PLANTING IN BORDER VILLAGES?

You’ll have to come on a monitoring visit and see for yourself. In Chinari village, because the local cemetery is within view from the adversary’s posts, the villagers are forced to do funerals at night to avoid falling under fire. Our poplar trees were planted there to obstruct the view, and they are getting really tall!

When we are given Armenian families in the permission, we plan on using our Kashatagh region. indigenous seedlings grown in our nurseries to replant the affected areas. HOW WE HELPED

Our Yerevan office sprung into action to collect necessary items for the soldiers at the beginning of the war. The ATP office served as a local collection point for donations.

The Yerevan staff personally contributed $200 to purchase additional supplies. Supplies included shovels, pickaxes, sweatshirts, hats, undershirts, socks, blankets, and juice boxes. We also sent one of four pickup trucks to the front lines.

Collectively, ATP staff, board, and supporters donated over $30,000 to aid Artsakh.

Lastly, we organized a joint-statement with 19 environmental organizations to condemn the destructive use of white phosphorus on Artsakh's ancient forests. When it's feasible, we will utilize our resources and knowledge to help replant the damaged areas.

KHACHPAR NURSERY WORKER, GRIGOR ANTONYAN (34), RETURNS HOME AFTER SERVING IN THE WAR ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION

Environmental education has been one of Armenia Tree Project’s major programs for the past 15 years, so when schools closed and people began following the norms of social distancing to prevent the spread of the coronavirus outbreak, the organization changed gears quickly.

In Armenia and in the Diaspora, ATP had an ambitious agenda of programs and visits scheduled with students, including preparations for diasporan students who were planning to visit Armenia to plant trees with their peers this spring. Within a week, most programs had been cancelled or postponed, so ATP’s educators went into action to present new material online.

Our team prepared a series of PowerPoint presentations and supplemental materials based on various environmental topics. The topics stem from the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. The lessons were distributed to schools in the Diaspora, and were utilized during Zoom presentations by our team in Armenia.

3,430 STUDENTS WERE EDUCATED VIA ZOOM BY ATP'S ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION TEAM IN 2020 ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION (CONT.)

Over 40,000 students have been educated at ATP's Ohanian Education Centers since their opening!

Due to the pandemic, students were taught over Zoom. 44 schools, universities, and NGOS across 15 different communities in Armenia participated in ATP's Zoom classes.

ATP launched its "Grow Together" initiative in December. Over 700 students in Armenia were provided with acorn seedlings, and were taught by ATP educators how to grow and care for their seedlings.

In the Diaspora, ATP expanded its reach to more than 100 schools, Saturday/Sunday schools, and Armenian youth groups!

As part of our joint collaboration with the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation, ATP translated three of our Building Bridges newsletters into Western Armenian. Our goal is to translate all of them soon! OUTREACH

Thanks to the generosity and support of its donors and corporate partnerships, ATP recorded revenues of nearly $2.5M in 2020!

During the early months of the global pandemic, ATP found it necessary to reduce its spending. These budget cuts were concentrated in its U.S. office so that ATP could retain all 70 of its full-time employees in Armenia as well as hire 150 temporary workers for its Spring and Fall planting seasons. In addition, ATP received a Small Business Association loan from the US government under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act. Together these actions enabled ATP to continue its mission and maintain its operations.

In the last quarter of the fiscal year, we Armenians were faced with yet another tragedy. Fighting broke out in our beloved Artsakh, and like many organizations, ATP took to raising funds for the war effort. Collectively, from its donors, staff and Board members, ATP contributed $30,000 to Artsakh relief!

I would like to personally invite each one of you to become an integral part of the ATP family and establish a recurring monthly donation. You may do so through your employer with an automated payroll deduction or by contacting our Woburn office.

Our Oak Society members have supported our mission by making a gift to ATP through their will or living trust. Bequests are essential in our nonprofit’s mission. Bequest provisions are simple to establish and ensure that your intentions are carried out quickly, with fewer complications for your family and loved ones. By making a bequest to ATP, you provide one of the greatest levels of support to our organization. Although it is not required, making us aware of your bequest is helpful. By informing us of your wishes, we can recognize you today for your thoughtful generosity and plan for ATP’s future.

Our Backyard Nursery Program sponsors are essential in supporting families in rural villages that depend on the income from this program. By supporting a family, you ensure that they are able to increase their annual income by 30%!

By supporting the sponsorship of a Community Tree Planting (CTP) site, you can revitalize an entire community by greening a village or city while sustaining its natural ecosystem. Greening CTP sites is an integral aspect of ATP's mission.

For more information, please contact Michelle Bazarian at (617-926-8733) or email [email protected]. Sustainers

We recognize and celebrate our loyal ATP partners who have supported our organization with more than 50 gifts. Thank you for remaining committed to our mission, and supporting our work with your continued contributions.
