My Vision

For the Armenian Relief Society to continue its majestic and fruitful work and service into its second centenary, while engaging youth and reaching greater goals.

My Targets

Throughout its outreach efforts, the Armenian Relief Society needs to promote the organization to the younger generation, including Armenian high school students, AYF members, and student organizations with the end goal of revitalizing the ranks of the ARS and bringing renewed vigor.
