At their official meeting on June 30, the Armenian Cultural
Association of America, Inc. (ACAA) Board of Directors appointed James
G. Sahagian of New Jersey as associate trustee of the ACAA Endowment
Funds.
James G. Sahagian
Sahagian has been a financial advisor with Wells Fargo Advisors since
2009. His professional work is with individuals and institutional
clients on wealth and risk management, and wealth transfer strategies.
He has more than 15 years of professional experience in this field.
Sahagian earned his B.S. in accounting from Rutgers University and has
a MBA in finance from the Rutgers Graduate School of Management.
Sahagian was involved in establishing and promoting the Armenian
Studies Program at Rutgers while a student, and has continued to lead
this effort for more than 20 years. The program has sponsored Armenian
language and history courses and recently partnered with the
university's Center for Genocide Studies and Human Rights.
The wealth of experience and knowledge that Sahagian brings to the
ACAA Endowment Funds will enhance its continuing growth--from humble
beginnings of under $195,000 in 1997 to over several million dollars
to date. The ACAA provides grants to further Armenian-language
newspapers, academic studies, internships, cultural programs, and
other endeavors to "foster a better relationship for the Armenian
Nation." The ACAA is proud to have the services of James G. Sahagian
and welcome his addition to improve and further the Armenian Cause.
James Sahagian is married to the former Maral Halajian. They have two
children, Ari, 11, and Seta, 7. He and his family are members of the
St. Leon Armenian Church in New Jersey. The Sahagian Family resides in
Airmont, N.Y.
Bedros C. Bandazian is the managing trustee of the ACAA Endowment
Funds, the St. James Armenian Church of Richmond, Va., and the
Hamazkayin Cultural Association of America, Inc. Endowment Fund, and
advisor to several other endowment funds around the country, including
that of the Diocese of the Armenian Church of America, Inc., in its
formative years. The Bandazian Family helped establish the AYF Camp
Haiastan Endowment Fund and the ANCA Endowment Fund. Bandazian has
served on the ACAA Board of Directors and is currently chairman of the
Board of Bandazian & Hughes, Inc., a full-service real-estate firm in
Richmond, which he established in 1974. For more information on the
ACAA Endowment Fund, contact Bandazian by calling (804) 370-5468 or
