AZADI Fine Rugs donates $100,000 to find COVID-19 vaccine

Posted

AZADI Fine Rugs/Bella Fine Goods has announced a donation of $100,000 to Telluride Science Research Center for their global effort in finding a cure or vaccine for COVID-19.

“We are extremely committed to the community and are honored to support TSRC,” said David Neishabori, owner of AZADI Fine Rugs.

“We wanted to play a role and help globally to find a cure/vaccine for COVID-19.”

TSRC was founded in 1984 as an incubator for molecular science and is the only independent molecular science center in the world, according to a press release. TSRC advances knowledge and discovery for the benefit of all by enabling leading scientists from around the world to convene workshops and summer schools in an inspirational setting.

In 2020 many of these scientists shifted their research to finding a vaccine for COVID-19.

AZADI Fine Rugs is committed to supporting communities that they see as their extended family and causes that benefit the people in those communities.

They believe that part of building a business is building a legacy of giving, the press release stated.

AZADI, which has been in business for more than 200 years, has worked with numerous non-profits in the communities where their galleries are located, helping them raise much needed funds for various programs.

Established in 1790, AZADI Fine Rugs has a rich history of devotion to hand-woven rugs and the clients they serve.

AZADI Fine Rugs has locations in Scottsdale and Sedona; Jackson Hole Wyoming; and Kona, Hawaii.

The newest addition to the AZADI family is Bella Fine Goods, an upscale boutique providing fine jewelry, home furnishings, art, and gifts. Bella Fine Goods is located in Sedona, Jackson Hole, and Telluride, Colorado.
