    ANC-WR Extern Spotlight: Armine Sargsyan


    Los Angeles, CA - As one of seven Interns for the Armenian National
    Committee - Western Region's Summer 2008 Internship - Externship
    Program (ANC-WR IEP), Armine Sargsyan has immersed herself in the
    promotion of bilateral ties between American and Armenian cities. As
    an Extern for the Glendale Ghapan Sister City Association (GGSCA),
    Sargsyan generates press and is helping organize the GGSCA fifth
    anniversary celebration event.

    "Being an Extern with GGSCA has allowed me to become a more active
    member of my community," said Sargsyan. "I've always wanted to
    contribute to the Armenian American community and this Externship was
    the perfect opportunity," she added.

    In addition to the work assigned to her by GGSCA, Sargsyan has spent
    numerous hours volunteering for ANC-WR during the Navasartian Games
    and for the Armenian Relief Society during the Mayor's Day of Service.

    Sargsyan attends UCLA, where she studies political science. After
    graduating, Sargsyan plans to attend graduate school where she will
    specialize in international relations.

    Sargsyan has been a long time community activist and is a Model United
    Nations (MUN) member at UCLA. As a MUN participant, Sargsyan learned
    about the ANC-WR IEP through a friend and was enthusiastic to partake
    in the program.

    The Armenian National Committee - Western Region is the largest and
    most influential Armenian American grassroots advocacy organization in
    the Western United States. Working in coordination with a network of
    offices, chapters, and supporters throughout the Western United States
    and affiliated organizations around the country, the ANC-WR advances
    the concerns of the Armenian American community on a broad range of
    issues.
