This fundraiser is created in honor of a talented young Armenian woman, Sona Mnatsakanyan, gone too soon in a tragic car accident in Yerevan on 26 April 2022. It was created due to a number of requests from Sona's friends and colleagues who wish to support the causes she cared about and to pass on her legacy. 

Sona Mnatsakanyan was an exceptionally talented woman with a heart for everything Armenian. She brought change to everyone in need and anywhere she could. With her life’s journey and wonderful plans tragically interrupted, taking with her the unborn baby Aria, it has now become a special mission to follow her wisdom and help fulfill her dreams about Armenia, about science and technology and the female talent within these. 

The Sona Mnatsakanyan Female Talent Scholarship Fund is created to unite the people who knew Sona and her work and who wish to support the continuation of her efforts. The raised funds will be allocated in the form of one-off scholarships to talented Armenian women in three main categories: Renewable energy, Technology, and Science. The first round of scholarships will be awarded on July 30-31, 2022 - during the FemInno conference in Yerevan where Sona was going to be a speaker. Her husband, Ashot Vardanian, will deliver the talk and inaugurate the Scholarship Fund. 

The main objective is to roll over Sona’s ball in supporting and uplifting Armenia and Artsakh through quality education, talent development and particularly raising girls and women, like herself. 

The key results of this phase will be the funding raised for one-off awards for about 10 scholars who’ll be selected via an open call.

Ten girls and women aged 18 and above from Armenia and Artsakh, engaged in the following three main areas and with a prominent reason to support their journey:

  • Green energy
  • Technology 
  • Science

Sona believed that education can change lives and everyone deserves an opportunity, let’s continue her vision and support youth education!
