New York AYF Organizes Discussion on ANCA Gateway, Internship Programs
NEW YORK, NY - On March 27, ANCA Capital Gateway Program director Serouj
Aprahamian lectured to a group of young Armenian-Americans about ANCA
internship opportunities in Washington, DC. Organized by the New York
Hyortik AYF chapter the event took place at St. Illuminator's Armenian
Cathedral in Manhattan. Aside from numerous young professionals, AYF members
>From New York, New Jersey, and members from Hunter's Armenian Club were in
attendance.
During the lecture Aprahamian spoke about the Capital Gateway program while
the audience listened with interest. The ANCA offers many different
internship opportunities to students and young Armenian professionals and
has been doing so for more than two decades, said Aprahamian.
A short movie was then screened showing alumni and current fellows talking
about their program experience. In the film numerous young
Armenian-Americans voiced their thanks to the ANCA for giving them
opportunities that eventually led to their current career advancements. ANCA
Executive Director Aram Hamparian spoke in the film about the importance of
having Armenians not only as interns working at large firms and
Congressional offices, but of one day becoming CEO's and Senators
themselves. Copies of the DVD were also passed out to each attendee.
After the lecture Aprahamian gave the floor to ANC Eastern Region director
Karine Birazian who also addressed the audience, stressing the importance of
having a strong ANC presence in New York City. She outlined local
opportunities to help out at the ANC Eastern Region office in Manhattan.
"This event was a good learning experience not only in respect to the ANCA
Internship program but about ANCA's role in Washington. Talking to Serouj
after the program, I think I'm definitely going to give Capital Gateway a
try," said Hyortik member Maral Najjarian.
