St. Mary's Fundraising Efforts for Artsakh
Our efforts to raise much-needed funds for Artsakh continues. We would like to express our sincere appreciation to everyone who participated in the past weeks with their time and donations towards this important cause.
I am pleased to announce that the BarkBBQ’s event was completely sold out! It generated over $8K, which was initially matched by the Ghazarian family, bringing the total to $17k, and was subsequently matched by the Armenian Assembly, generating a donation of $35k to armeniafund.org.
Special appreciation to the Hakopian family who so generously matched $20K, which enabled St. Mary to contribute another $40K towards the fundraising efforts.
Our heartfelt appreciation goes out to all of St. Mary Community members who donated and prepared delicious baked goods for sale, which brought in $5K.
Through the dedication and hard work of our Gift Store committee, another $5k has been raised.
We also appreciate the efforts of our Avak Society's organizing committee and volunteers who over the weekend raised in excess of 10K for Artsakh.
Shortly, our Women’s Guild will be hosting a Thanksgiving Lunch and bake sale, and the portion of the proceeds will be donated to the All Armenia Fund.
These efforts will continue to help our compatriots in Artsakh and Armenia until peace prevails again across our borders by the grace of God.
