Armenian-American Community’s Feeding America Fundraiser Surmounts Goals As Covid-19 Upends Traditional March For Justice, Armenian-Americans Come Together In Honor Of First Responders Then And Now

1.5 Million Meals in honor of the 1.5 Million lives lost in the Armenian Genocide, started out as a March for Justice virtual campaign and was created in honor of the Near East Relief, America’s first NGO established to help the Armenian people during the arduous times of Genocide. Just as America came together to help the Armenians, we have as a diasporan community bound together in this year’s virtual March for Justice, providing meals to Americans in support with Feeding America. Thank you to all of you in our community, far and wide, for being a part of this effort! It is because of you we have far surpassed our initial goal of 1.5 Meals! In fact, we’ve reached over 5 Million meals provided through the campaign at end of campaign on April 24th!
