    ALBANY, N.Y.-On April 13, the Homenetmen of Albany organized a
    fundraiser to help distraught Syrian Armenians. Monetary donations
    from the Albany Armenian and non-Armenian community totaled $8,888.

    All monies donated were combined at a regional level and sent to
    Armenians in Syria through the Syrian-Armenian Fund of the Armenian
    Prelacy (138 East 39th Street, New York, NY 10016).

    the fundraiser dinner.

    As a token of appreciation, the Syrian Armenian Event Committee, under
    the umbrella of the Homenetmen of Albany, hosted a complimentary dinner
    along with a special program, which included various presentations
    and live film footage from Syria. The committee members include
    Dr. Levon Eleyjian, the president of Albany's Homenetmen Chapter,
    Y. Ara Mahserdjian, Lena Hoglund-Guleserian, Isabel Kubikian, Ara
    Achejian, Rita Guleserian, Betty Minassian, and Leeza Bardakjian.

    The group's efforts proved that no matter how small the Armenian
    community in Albany may be, or how far they live from one another,
    they are citizens of the world and are proud to have helped make a
    difference in the lives of those suffering in Syria.
