Raising funds for drinking water and irrigation projects in Artsakh,
Armenia Fund's "Water is Life" International Thanksgiving Day Telethon
will air live from Hollywood on November 25, 2010, 8:00AM-8:00PM PST
coast-to-coast and around the world. Airing for 12 hours, Telethon 2010
will reach every continent, entering Armenian homes through satellite,
cable and the internet.
The Telethon will bring together Armenians from all walks of life
regardless of their political or religious views and affiliations
around one purpose: to bring life to Artsakh villages by giving them
round-the-clock access to clean drinking and irrigation water.
The shortage of water is a serious problem in Artsakh affecting more
than 70,000 people living in 200 villages. On average, each family
spends 40% of their daily lives carrying water from a source 2-5
miles away. That water is not always clean - 88% of all diseases are
related to tainted drinking water.
In the United States alone the potential audience for the Telethon is
around 55 million households in the states of Arizona, California,
Massachusetts, Michigan, Missouri, Nevada, New Jersey, New York,
Pennsylvania, and Washington.
In Armenia, the Telethon can be viewed for full 12 hours on H1,
Armenia, Shant and Yerkir Media networks beginning 20:00.
