New York - The Children of Armenia Fund (COAF) has announced Gatsby at
the Bowery, a fundraising event hosted by COAF NextGen, a new group
formed to educate and involve the next generation of philanthropists
in COAF's work in rural Armenia.
The event, which includes an open bar, passed hors d'oeuvres, a raffle,
and 1920s-themed entertainment, will take place at The Bowery Hotel
Terrace on Thursday, Sept. 10 from 8 to 11 p.m. The net proceeds from
the event will benefit children and youth in rural Armenia.
Founded in 2000, the Children of Armenia Fund is an independent,
nonprofit, nongovernmental (501)(c)(3) organization. COAF seeks to
reverse the impoverished conditions affecting significant numbers of
Armenia's children by revitalizing Armenia's villages and implementing
projects that provide immediate and sustainable benefits to children
and youth.
Since its founding, the Children of Armenia Fund's activities have
focused on revitalizing rural Armenia, with a comprehensive approach
to addressing the critical needs of children together with economic
development activities which enable people to acquire the necessary
tools to help themselves. COAF's partnerships with UNDP, USAID
and the World Bank, along with many other local and international
organizations, have allowed us to effectively channel financial
resources where they are needed most.
Tickets are offered at two levels of support, the higher level
including a signed limited-edition photograph taken in one of COAF's
villages by acclaimed photographer Hrair Hawk Khatcherian. Admission
prices will increase after August 28.
