On Friday, June 27, 2008, Western Diocesan Council Chairman

Angeles, Joseph Kanimian, Esq. attended the 92nd Annual

and celebration of the spirit of Partnerships was held at
the California Endowment Center, Yosemite Room in downtown
Los Angeles.
The guest speaker during the meeting was James G.
Featherstone, the General Manager of the Emergency
Management Department for the City of Los Angeles.
L.A’s Emergency Management Department works with Los
Angeles Fire Department, Los Angeles Police Department and
other law enforcement and emergency management agencies to
prevent and respond to natural, man-made and technological
disasters. Mr. Featherstone spoke about the city’s
disaster preparedness and volunteer network. He praised all
those who help the ARC of Greater Los Angeles.
The main speaker during the luncheon was Los Angles police
chief William Bratton, who spoke about the partnership
between the LAPD and the people of Los Angeles for the
betterment of our city and communities. Chief Bratton
emphasized the importance of this partnership and stressed
the need for better cooperation between all city and county
agencies to face any and all emergencies and disasters.
Following the meeting, volunteers and board members who had
provided five years of service or more to the ARC of Greater
Los Angeles were recognized and acknowledged by Board
Chairman Edmond Lelo and CEO Paul Schulz.
Joseph Kanimian who continues serving on the Board of
Directors, is also on the Development Committee of the ARC
of Greater Los Angeles. The Western Diocese has been helping
the ARC of Greater Los Angles by collecting contributions
from the faithful and allocating the funds for ARC’s
disaster relief efforts.
Once again, we urge the faithful of the Western Diocese to
support the American Red Cross of Greater Los Angeles by
sending their contributions to the Western Diocese earmarked
