Aregak Bakery is the 1st cafe in Armenia to intentionally employ young adults with special needs and moms of kids with disabilities! We want to purchase a new bread oven so we can expand our social enterprise's impact.

Update #2

Thank you to all of you for contributing to our cellar renovation and purchase of a new oven! Today, I got to watch our staff working with it (and try the bread). It has really revolutionized our processes. We have more room to work, we produce higher quality bread and soon we will be able to begin training others. Thank YOU!

We're excited to announce that we received a grant from the EU! So, now we only have to reach a $3500 goal here to fully fund the project.
