Armenian Prelacy and Armenian Relief Society donate $10,000 to Red Cross for Haiti Relief Foundation  The Armenian Prelacy of Canada and the Armenian Relief Society’s Canada Regional Executive presented to Silvana Bertocchi, Red Cross representative, a check for $10,000 to help with the Haiti Relief effort.
After witnessing the hundreds of children the January 12 earthquake had orphaned, Armenian Relief Society of Canada and the Armenian Prelacy of Canada launched an appeal to all Canadian Armenians for financial support for the Haiti Relief fund. As a people who have felt the bitter sting of a natural disaster, the Executives of the ARS and the Canadian Prelacy appealed to the good will of their communities across Canada, the same good will that helped out their fellow countrymen when an earthquake struck northern Armenia over 20 years ago. The Armenian Prelacy and the Armenian Relief Society want to extend their gratitude to all those who extended a helping hand and helped make this donation possible. |
