HURRICANE KATRINA
In response to the natural disaster in the Gulf States, the Central
Board of the Armenian General Benevolent Union (AGBU), through special
relief contributions, will donate $100,000 to the Red Cross in support
of Hurricane Katrina emergency efforts. AGBU has quickly responded over
the years to the plight of those who have survived warfare and natural
disasters all over the world.
The Red Cross has received over $409 million in gifts that will help
victims receive water, shelter, food, counseling and other assistance.
As a non-profit organization reaching out to individuals through
humanitarian programs, AGBU would like to offer its support to the Red
Cross so that it may continue its work in helping the victims of
Hurricane Katrina.
We encourage our worldwide membership to continue donating to charitable
organizations that are providing relief efforts.
Established in 1906, AGBU is the world's largest non-profit Armenian
organization. Headquartered in New York City with an annual budget of
$26 million, AGBU (www.agbu.org) preserves and promotes the Armenian
identity and heritage through educational, cultural and humanitarian
