Mousa Ler Association of California has organized a
cultural event to express the community's gratitude
and appreciation to AGBU for its assistance of Musa
Daghian refugees in 1915. The event is free of
admission charges, and it will take place on Saturday,
December 16, 2006 at the Glendale Central Library (222
E. Harvard Street, Glendale, CA).
AGBU is one of the world's largest non-profit Armenian
organization established in 1906 in Egypt, for the
preservation and promotion of the Armenian identity
and heritage. It has helped the Genocide survivors and
has touched the lives of millions of Armenians for a
century. In particular, it has played a crucial role
in the lives of the people of Moussa Ler during their
four years as refugees in Egypt, where, following
their heroic resistance against the Turkish Army in
1915, they were transported by the French Navy. During
this period, the AGBU was instrumental in providing
educational and social assistance to over 4000 Moussa
Lertsy refugees. It was through the benevolence of the
AGBU that the ~SSisvan~T school was established under
tents for the educational needs of the youth. The AGBU
also lent a hand of assistance to the people of Moussa
Ler upon their return to Moussa Ler in 1919. The AGBU
assistance continued during the early years of Ainjar.
The Moussa Ler Association of California would like to
express its gratitude and appreciation to the AGBU, by
organizing a cultural event that will be held on
Saturday, December 16, 2006 at 8 PM in the Glendale
Public Library (222 E Harvard St). An exhibit of
photographs depicting the lives of Moussa Lertsies in
Egypt and a presentation by Dr. Vahram Shemmassian of
California State University at Northridge (CSUN) will
highlight the evening.
We would like to invite the public to attend this
event and participate in expressing our deepest
gratitude and appreciation for all the assistance and
leadership the AGBU has shown to the Armenians all
over the world, and especially to the people of Moussa
Ler.
