ANC-WR LAUNCHES CENSUS 2010 CAMPAIGN
GLENDALE, CALIFORNIA - The Armenian National Committee - Western
Region (ANC-WR) recently launched the "ANCensus 2010" campaign.
Working in partnership with the Census 2010, the ANC-WR seeks to
boost the participation rate of Armenian Americans in the 2010
Census count by educating the community and increasing awareness
about the significance of the headcount.
The ANC-WR Census 2010 campaign efforts are supported in part by a
grant from the California Community Foundation. The grant will
assist the ANC-WR to conduct an aggressive community outreach
campaign for the 2010 Census. The goals of the ANCensus 2010
project include maximizing Armenian American participation in the
2010 headcount and informing the community to indicate "Armenian"
as their race on the questionnaire.
The outreach campaign also allows for re-granting opportunities to
Armenian American nonprofit organizations. The ANC-WR will
distribute grants in the coming months to those Armenian American
organizations that are willing to conduct Census outreach work.
Organizations must submit proposal applications by Friday, February
5, 2010. For more information on re-granting opportunities, please
visit ANCensus2010.org or call the ANCensus 2010 Hotline at (888)
666-4761.
"One of the primary goals for the outreach campaign is to increase
the number of Armenian Americans who participate in the 2010 census
and ensure that the questionnaires accurately reflect our ethnic
group," said Tamar Baboujian, Director of the ANCensus 2010
Project. "We are thankful to the California Community Foundation
for giving us the opportunity to conduct and execute this campaign
in a sophisticated and efficient manner."
The Armenian National Committee - Western Region is the largest
Armenian American grassroots community 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 works to
promote understanding regarding issues of concern to the Armenian
American community.
