    AYF to Hold Second Annual Little Armenia Clean Up

    Los Angeles - The Armenian Youth Federation Western United States Garo
    Madenlian Public Affairs Office announced Thursday that it has began the
    planning and organization of the Second Annual Little Armenia Clean Up
    scheduled to take place on September 25.

    The clean up, which is cosponsored by Council Member Eric Garcetti's Office,
    will begin at 8:30 am with an opening ceremony, including remarks by Council
    Member Garcetti. Volunteers for the clean up will work to remove litter and
    unwanted weeds from the streets and sidewalks.

    The clean up, a project of the AYF Little Armenia Beautification Program,
    will include the renewal of the `Welcome to Little Armenia' banners placed
    on various major intersections of Little Armenia.

    `It is an honor to the Armenian American community to have an area of the
    City Los Angeles named after our homeland,' said Vicken Sosikian, Chairman
    of the AYF Western Region. `Since October of 2000 we have enjoyed this
    honor, and feel that we not only need to give back to Little Armenia and its
    residents, but also to the city of Los Angeles.'

    The AYF counts on the support of the Armenian community to make this
    community outreach event a success. Those who are interested in volunteering
    for the clean up or contributing to the effort in anyway should email the
    AYF at [email protected].

    The Armenian Youth Federation strives to serve Armenian American communities
    west of the Mississippi through education, athletics, political activism,
    cultural activities, and social settings. To learn more about the AYF please
