ARMENIAN-AMERICAN COMMUNITY HOSTS "INTERNATIONAL RELIEF, REFUGE, AND
RECOGNITION" TRIBUTE
Los Angeles, CA - The Armenian Assembly, the Armenian General
Benevolent Union and the Western Diocese of the Armenian Church are
pleased to announce an event to honor and pay tribute to the numerous
nations that were instrumental in offering their support to the
Armenian people.
The program, entitled "International Relief, Refuge, and Recognition",
will recognize those nations that have officially acknowledged the
Armenian Genocide, given refuge, and or provided relief to its
survivors. The luncheon will be held on Thursday, February 24th in Los
Angeles and will feature members of the diplomatic corps in
California, relief organizations, scholars, and the media.
This event will also serve as a prelude to a series of local,
national, and international events that will commemorate and raise
awareness of the 90th Anniversary of the Armenian Genocide.
This will expand upon the continued partnership between the three
organizations that began at the Assembly's 2004 National Conference in
Washington. "This event is significant for our community in order to
recognize those nations that extended their hand to our people and
assisted with the survival of the Armenian nation," said Archbishop
Hovnan Derderian, Primate of the Western Diocese. The luncheon
welcomes the Armenian-American community and the community at-large.
The Armenian Assembly of America is the largest Washington-based
nationwide organization promoting public understanding and awareness
of Armenian issues. It is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt membership
organization.
